Nice but still too young. Needs another year or probably more. Good vareital flaovr; some green pepper, other vegetal notes. Tannin not over powering but definitely there. But too "green" overall

Still too young; will wait on other bottles. That said, it was fine with meatloaf. Tannins are present but not the issue; the green nature of the vegetal notes is OK on the palate but they prevent the fruit (noticeable on the nose) from showing up. Plenty of structure; will definitely age well.

Served to friends with burgers: perfect match. Wine is still maturing but now quite drinkable: bright red color and fruit with nice structure under it; some vegetal notes but subtle, fruit is dominant. Should get better for quite a while.

Still maturing but this is now a very drinkable and pleasant CF. Tannins are well controlled, bright red fruit with notes of green pepper and a hint of forest/mushroom. Perfect with a burger or similar.

Enjoyed very much. Drinking great. Perfect amount of tannins. Dark, fruity Cabernet Franc. Great to drink now or has a few more years left in bottle.
