August 6, 2023 - This is a very nice cab franc. Sometimes these can be too robust, but not this one. This wine provided a very nice wine to utilize with a grilled ribeye, and it work perfect. The bold dark fruit body (but not overpowering bold) along with the slightly elevated acidity mixed with some smooth balanced tannins gave this wine a "drinking" pleasure. There is still life in this wine of, my estimate, is 2-4 years. It would be nice to have another bottle to check this on, but this was my last.

June 15, 2023 - Tasting great now. Complex and long finish. I think you can go another five years.

May 17, 2023 - I really liked this. Not an expert, as probably consumed <100 bottles of cab franc in my life. Drinking amazingly well. Don't know if Bob was still making this in 2013.

March 13, 2023 - Tasted with several other Cab Francs, this one stood out for the beautiful integration of fruit, savory notes, and early mature complexity. Although not as openly billowing and opulent as the 2019 Paradigm Cab Franc, the nose and palate were utterly seamless in comparison, beautifully knitting together lush fruit (cassis, dark cherry, black raspberry) and savory components (dark chocolate, espresso, humidor tobacco, Indian spices) with firm but moderated tannins and sufficient acidity. In a peak drinking window now.
