  This was delightful after an hour of air. Deep and dark for a cab franc, with more floral notes than green pepper and sweet, largely resolved tannins. Ready to go but no rush.

  cork fell apart; plenty of mixed smooth/deep wild berry, a hint of anise/earth; good acidity; tannins mostly resolved; still young and balanced

  The weight of this is in between new world and the Loire. I could see this going either way depending on the context. Either way, pleasant but not extraordinary. Tannins were resolved, lots of sediment. Time to finish them.

  Great spot - luscious red fruits, acidity intact, tannins sweet and integrated. Alcohol, acidity, and fruit in balance. Tasted side by side with 2016 Olga Raffault Chinon- a wonderful contrast of Old World (bereft of green or vegetal notes) and New World (green spiced and slightly more savory), though both were lush and warm.

  Soft, elegant and almost perfectly balanced with developed tannins offset by bracing acidity. Black fruit notes. Only reason it is not even more highly rated is that it comes across as a bit light on the mid-palate. (Yes, I see my previous extolling of the mid-palate. Go figger.)
