Dark, dark savory fruit, mushroom, deep forest, bell pepper and woody herbs. Fresh acidity, integrated tannins and in perfect balance. This wine has exceeded my expectations for it's longevity and just in general. One of the best, if not the best, domestic cab franc I have ever had.

LAST BOTTLE - NO!!! Oh, well, this was continually consistent and delicious. More of same. Rose petals, cocoa, plums. Depth and smooth tannins. Drink now...or maybe in the next year.

(Owen Roe Rosa Mystica Yakima Valley) An interesting nose with loads of green and black pepper along with caramel. Alcohol shows through at times. A fair amount of oak on the taste. Red Willow Vineyard. 14.1% alcohol.
