A very pleasant surprise. The bottle had been kept toward the bottom and back of a large Eurocave cooler and looked like it had been through a battle. On the inside, the wine was still very good, despite a lot of sediment. Drank over two nights with no loss of character on day 2. Good flavor blackberry and plum and rich mouthfeel.

Heavy, full-bodied and intense - a great choice with NY strips and mushrooms. A very nice bottling of a grape that is usually a supporting player. This bottle was full of pepper, plum, and cassis, with z hint of cocoa. An excellent selection for a summer evening!

Very lush, smooth, and balanced Cab Franc. Really lacked some of the character expected in a Cab Franc. The Tannins were smooth and the finish was long. Very good bottle but all in all fairly boring.
