Thursday, November 12, 2009 - (At Cloalis restaurant with the Sextet) opened 2 hours before serving and reduced to LS.
Pleasant classic Cabernet Franc aromas, refined nose of tobacco, berry fruit, light spices and minerals. Classy in its flavors, complex, elegant, with notes of chocolate, vanilla & earth. Plenty of silky tannins. Medium finish. Can be enjoyed on its own or with delicate meat. Enjoyable, though I had higher expectations after having started knowing this wine with the 2004 Paleo.
