  5/9/2020 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 92 Points

  Retail $40. Wow. There is a lot to love here. First, it's a Cabernet Franc, which in and of itself, is a reason to celebrate. Second, it's a Cab Franc for chrissakes! And third, it is completely delicious. What's not to love? Holy cow is this bottle ridiculously, and unnecessarily, heavy. The wine? Close to a whoa. Really dark and opaque in the glass, with dark fruit, black pepper, and just the ever-so-slightest hint of green pepper. The palate? Vibrant and rich, fruity, savory, and tart. Big and full of power (as well as some mocha), this is a beef lover's delight. Rich, full-bodied, and tannic. Holy cow. Really close to a Whoa. thedrunkencyclist.com
