Color: deep purple, burgundy Nose: deep red fruit, blueberry, blackberry, some cherry notes, light tannins, some oak Taste: notable soft tannins, blackberry, cherry, some tobacco Finish: lingering sweetness and tannins on the finish
Listed as drinkable through 2022, I think this has body to age even longer.

Medium plus nose shows blackberry, cassis, very dark style for Cab Franc, fresh herbs, anise, coffee. Palate is bold, full bodied, hints of dusty earth, black plums, violets, structure is bigger than their Cab Sauv, medium plus tannins, high alcohol, nice spice on the finish.

Three hour decant. Deep magenta/maroon color. Root beer, sautéed green pepper, rose water and subtle blackberry on the interesting nose. Smooth, super dry palate. Firm tannins on the medium finish. Peju did a good job with this young Cab Franc.

I think this wine has finally given up its last gasp. Body and organization are starting to fall apart. The end of a good run.

Tart cherry, nice acidic balance, a bit herbacious on the nose. Not as floral as other years but still a lovely wine.
