Soft blue fruit, nicely balanced. No sed. Resolved tannins. Best right out of the bottle. Paired with grilled steak dinner. Held up well. Appreciated and enjoyed tonight. Enjoy CF more in a blend.

This was the surprise of the evening of drinking blind Bordeaux grapes varietal wines. Of the 6 bottles, all were cab sauvignon based except this. When I originally opened this bottle, it was young and developing. Two hours later it was full and complex with blue fruit, graphite and eucalyptus notes. Lots of potential here.

Concentrated fruit and soft velvety mouthfeel. This has nice balance, not an alcoholic fruit bomb, and lingering finish.

Fragrant, with rich layers of berry fruit and nice balance. Very enjoyable.

Nice example of Cabernet Franc. I prefer as a part of a blend.
