Color: perfect dark garnet red Nose: a little wet earth, a little eucalyptus, a little plum, a little cigar Palate: black jammy, leather, tobacco but well balanced throughout Mouthfeel: fairly big at the front but short finish Feel like this bottle is a year past peek but still very enjoyable

Really great example of a Washington cab franc. Juicy round black and red fruit, with an aromatic nose. Great mouth feel with soft yet prominent tannins and persistent acidity. Finish is long, with leather and spice. Should age a few more years.

Soft and approachable up front with a solid foundation of tannin and structure on the back end. Somewhat fruity which quickly gives way to an earthiness mid palate. Finish is medium in length.

similar to past note. Tannins are really youthful and vibrant, giving way to a long simmering finish.
