  This is such a great value wine. Their Cab Franc kind of reminds me of the Spanish Reds a few years ago. Great wine at a great price. Decant an hour and be wonderfully surprised with the first glass you pour.

  Blackberry/plum fruit, some warm spice (cinnamon), a hint of something like longpepper. M to M+ body, some alcohol heat but not excessive, M- tannin, M acid. This walks a pretty good line of ripeness/body and freshness for a new world red, not overly concentrated and not as big as I expected. Qpr is pretty good. Don’t see any reason to hold this, I’d sooner try it younger with more primary fruit than with more age. ~6/10
