Community Tasting Notes 7

    March 16, 2024 - Nose: Stemmy raspberry leaf, green. Palate: Dried dirt and stems, raspberries, soft tannins. A good example of a leafy and non-fruit-forward cab franc that I think would benefit from another year or two int he cellar if the tannins can hold.

    November 11, 2023 - Lättsamt husvin i lagom prisklass. Relativt balanserat, röda bär, lätt örtigt med en pigg syra.

    October 6, 2023 - The nose is a little bit funky and surprising. Some dried fruit tones, honey, spice, ripe blackberries. I like the taste more: lively acidity, more fresh fruit, earth. Good balance and a lasting finish. It is not a typical Cab. franc - no greenish notes at all. Tannins are fine grained and I do not think it will benefit from ageing. Not a cheap wine.
