Several lost bottles of Ehlers magically reappeared, this being among them! Pop and pour, stored properly in my walk-in since purchase. A tinge of green and bell pepper on the nose, light-to-medium in weight, blue fruit flavors with the slightest tanins overshadowed (slightly) by oak. Drink up if you still have any; not bad but clearly not going to get much better. At $30 this was a solid QPR.

Opened and allowed to sit about 45 mins, but not decanted. Also found this to be a bit hot at first, but that dissipated about 1.5hrs after initial opening. Blue fruits, a little vanilla. Thinner than I recall when tasting this at the winery, but still a very good Cab Franc at a reasonable price. Follows Pride and Crocker-Starr in terms of quality IMO.

Just a great wine- fantastic value in local stores at $19.99. This wine had a finishing spice that was unmatched.

Pop and pour. Rose enjoyed more than I, a little thin for me, fruit softer then when first tried during the summer.

This was a nice wine but a bit on the hot side. As I drank it it got better.
