  Same as before, Clear med ruby with legs pronounce and quick to form. Nose is clean, red berry and classic pencil shavings of cab franc. Palate has med acidity and med + tannin, balanced and still developing. Light and very pleasant and will still be good for a couple of years.

  Light, juicy, good acid. Earthy notes of olive and brine. Nothing terribly complex, but it is a good wine for food.

  My first Loire red. Light bodied, attractive bouquet. Not at all like other Cabernet Francs I've had, that were bigger, but not necessarily better.
