December 8, 2022 - Very nice ready to drink Cab Franc. Deep color with a soft tannin finish. Put down a little sediment and should last another 3-5 years. Great with smoked gouda cheese! Santa Ynez can produce some very good Bordeaux style wines.

June 12, 2022 - Much bigger than a Loire-style Cab Franc, but it pulls it off with the acid and tannins balancing the big plum, blackberry fruit (and 14.9% ABV). Nice spice notes, too, to round things out.
