During GAJA tasing on Texel, short notes: compared to 2020 darker, richer, more prunes, firm, good future ahead.

Medium nose intensity with notes of plums, blackcurrants, black tea. Medium+ acidity and medium tannin.
And that gutsy and powerful to it as well. Shows the Franc. With very strong structure and oak to it.
Greater percentage of Cabernet Franc, quarter each of CS and Merlot. Pretty darn tasty. With focus on the tannins.
Blackberry, currants, plush, long finish 60% Cab Franc, 30% cab Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot. Cabernet Franc is excelling in Bolgheri with global warming, increasing in blends with decreasing Merlot
