MindMuse Does not like this wine: 75 points
May 25, 2023 - Pale red with some orange bricking. Noses with light red fruit and Bergamot perfume, some baby powder. Body is light, tart unripe red berries with a pretty severe green streak and a tannic finish. Apparent fine tartrate crystals at bottom. Time in glass only emphasized the shortcomings of this one. Just nowhere near the quality and pleasure of their Rieslings, which I do recommend.

March 17, 2022 - New to Red Newt but have tasted through and very much enjoyed a number of their rieslings recently, so was looking forward to trying their Cab Francs. This was disappointing. Light, dusty, peppery red fruit, relatively low acid, low but somewhat green tannin, very little depth. Obviously way too young but not sure this has much of an upward trajectory.
