At eighteen years, this is showing its age as the berry fruits are starting to give way to non fruit flavors of game, earth, leather and cedar. dark garnet colored, medium full bodied, the black berry and bright black cherry fruits are offset by the non-fruit flavors. Time to drink up as this is in its late stages of its drinking window.
No tasting notes. Very unimpressive, green, austere, I opened another bottle. Just not pleasant and I’m not inclined to buy another Cab Franc from Del Dotto.
