  Dark ruby red, bright.
  Still so stuffed, stacked, packed with dusty dark fruits, chalk, slate, floral and high tannins. Still a baby, I should age my last bottle for another 3-5 years.

  Still drinking beautifully. Wish I had more of it...
  The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle.

  Still drinking quite young, if cellared proper this still has plenty of time in bottle to go. Quite lot of crushed stone and cassis fruit on the nose, rich and pretty substantial on the palate, good dusty and chalkiness, medium length finish. A good quality wine.

  Beautifully silky yet bold Cabernet franc. Took a while to open but this particular bottle still seems tight. Got many years left. Deep dark purple. Fairly opaque. Dark fruits. Cloves. Warm black tea. Cinnamon. Truffle mushrooms. Wet leaves. Tannins showed up few hours later. Medium uplifting acidity.

  Beautiful Cabernet Franc. Right at peak
  Pretty on the nose. Red and black fruits. Blueberry pie. Truffle. Earth. Violets. Smooth and silky on palate balanced by soft n dry tannins and juicy acidity. Great wine right now! Cheers
