A bit of a fruit bomb with overripe red fruit and raisins on the nose below high tones and anise. Spice and a bit of umami as well. Some obvious heat on the nose. Nice balance otherwise, and certainly a good example of this style of wine given it has acid and round tannins. Some at the table loved it. Puritans will be disappointed with the voluptuousness of this wine (think more Anna Nicole Smith than even Kate Upton...) PDQ91+

The green notes from the cab overpowered the hoped for floral notes of the cab franc. Not bad, but nothing to get revved up about
