Medium to light purple in the glass and only semi clear with very little filtering or fining. The nose was slow to open but aroma's of dark fruits, strawberry and oak were present.
Nice mount feel as the tannin and acids were in balance. The dark fruits were at the forefront and the mid palate displayed more of the oak with a slight pepper finish.
Nice bottle for the price!

(Columbia Winery Cabernet Franc Red Willow Vineyard Yakima Valley) Lightly aromatic with floral notes, herbal notes, and green pepper. The palate is medium bodied with cherry flavors and firm, chalky tannins. 14.6% alcohol. Sample provided by winery.

Rather plain generic red wine.

Over all a good display of Cab Franc.
