  February 22, 2013 - This wine is even better the second night. Everything I smelled and tasted first night has gained depth and polish. Very good wine that I will buy again for sure.

  February 21, 2013 - I think a little young but pleasant enough to drink now. Very bright, almost sharp nose of red berries, candies and leaves. Taste is similar with medium to light body and medium finish. Nice typical character of Cabernet Franc. This is a new wine to me and frankly first time drinking Loire Valley Cabernet Franc. My familiarity with the grape is mostly from the New York Finger Lakes region which by the way is producing some excellent Cabernet Francs. 87 with probably a little upside. Enjoy.
