  Color: Ruby with a brickish rim
  Smell: Potting soil, tobacco, pyrazines, dried blueberries and graphite
  Taste: Dried red fruits, chewing tobacco, tomato leaf, and black currant.
  Overall: Excellent...and easily enjoyable on multiple levels. The Cab Franc is clearly present with the hallmark notes on the nose and palate. Light-medium body, med+ fruit, med acidity, med- tanin, and moderate complexity. If this was a sub $20 wine I'd be wildly impressed. Unfortunately this

  Very interesting blend of Corvina and Cabernet Franc. Meaty, funky notes of smoked sausage, pipe tobacco, wild mushrooms interlaced with a core of juicy black fruit. Enjoyable and different. Would love to have more.

  An attractive and unusual blend of Cabernet Franc and Corvina. Garnet in color, very dark, high viscosity. Autumn aromas of roasted marroni and cranberries. Spicy plum and black pepper and smoked wood with an acidic streak of sour cherries. Well structured wine with soft tannins. Interesting and different. Recommended.
