  NOSE: classic Cab. Franc pyrazines; slightly high-toned --- seems slightly carbonic; red-fruited; old wood furniture; medium+ expressiveness; hints of wet stones and raisins.
  
  BODY: garnet color of medium depth; medium-light bodied.
  
  TASTE: carbonic-tasting; drying tannin; medium-light concentration of fruit; lots of garrigué --- maybe a hint of brett?; obviously Cabernet Franc; loosely structured, and not terribly packed; gut impression score: high 80s, and I think it's best to Drink Now and over the short term.
