Paradigm makes a great Cabernet Sauvignon, but I believe they make a nearly transcendent Cabernet Franc! This area of Oakville is home to Harlan, Detert, Far Niente, and several lucky growers - Beckstoffer, etc. Year after year, this is fantastic - creamy and round mouthfeel, beautiful fruit and earthiness with a lingering finish. Always a treat. Needs a decanting.

On the nose, raspberry, black cherry, forest floor, earth and mushroom. On the palate, medium-bodied with raspberry, cherry and spice on the end of the medium length finish.

Not as good as I remembered, but still very pleasant nonetheless. Enjoyed by all. Elegantly styled. Still has cellar life.
