  April 17, 2017 - Each time taste this wine I think there is a slight improvement but don't know how much longer that will happen. Drink now if you like that younger wine taste, hold for couple more years (or more) if you like the older wine taste.

  April 5, 2017 - Nice round body, medium acidity, low tannins with heavy notes of ripe bing cherry. Undertones of plum skin, green potato, toasted nuts & butterfinger bar. Slight noes of a permanent marker.
  Young finish- could certainly age for a bit longer.

  November 12, 2016 - Slightly improved from our tasting at the winery. Got a little better after a couple hours open. A 2012 should be better than this.

  February 23, 2015 - (From Silverado Vineyards Collector's Notes)
  
  97% Cabernet Franc
  2% Petit Verdot
  1% Cabernet Sauvignon
  100% Mt. George Vineyard
  
  The nose on this Cab Franc starts as tart and slightly confectionary. As the wine opens it reveals aromas of Bing cherries, boysenberry, whit pepper, fresh spring fennel, earth and toast. The wine is medium to full bodied, with fun, gripping tannins and a long earthy finish.
