This is a very good wine but perhaps disappointing given the price being nearly twice that of the Sondraia - for little quality increment. It has perhaps very slightly more depth of flavour. 100% Cab Franc. Plush fruit but elegant, good acidity and refined tannins nicely in balance. Red and black fruit are accompanied by delicious baking spices and a hint of cedarwood. Persistent finish with moderate complexity. Drink now and for the next 10+ years.

What a wine! Chocolate, dark forest berries, super complex and deep. Very long finish. Love it!

Impressive, with formidable oak and tannin...should have been patient and waited on this!
