  Decanted for 3 hours prior to tasting.
  Extremely dark, opaque purple; lead pencil nose.
  Concentrated dark fruit, with an olive tapenade base. Long, lingering finish, full of savory notes.

  On the dark and serious side for cab franc. Well made and nicely balanced. Could use a few more years for the tannins to integrate. Solid value.

  Dark, very concentrated on the nose. Really very impressive; beautiful fruit here, but so fresh and drinkable. Very classy, clearly the top wine here. Great potential.
