Community Tasting Note

RGCM Gananda Likes this wine:

Thursday, September 30, 2021 - Previously tasted at the winery almost 2 years ago, this was my first from bottle and it has developed almost exactly as I'd hoped (glad I was patient). Nose shows sour red cherry, spices and earth. Nearly medium bodied (12.5% ABV and not quite as light as I recalled from my winery tasting) with red cherry upfront and the slightly darker and deeper red cherry and other redfruit notes through the middle. The mid-body has more depth than I recalled from my winery tasting and the finishing transition was cleaner. Tannins are very fine grained and neatly integrated, leading to a balanced finish. Overall, I'd say this wine has improved in terms of overall balance and integration and while it wasn't the most complex of the Wiemer Cabernet Francs I have tried, it was quite harmonious and fully earned the score the originally gave it. While it has several years ahead at this level, I don't see room for significant additional improvement. I would drink this wine over the next 2-3 years while its freshness, mid-body depth and overall completeness show at its best.
