A charming, rustic wine. Some pleasant green to go with subtle strawberry notes. Serious and a bit restrained, and a very versatile food wine that would pair with just about anything roasted, grilled or stewed. Maybe a touch thinner than ideal, but a really, really nice example of this varietal. Decent, if not great, QPR at $22.

Paumanok and Lenz (LI): if you love cab franc you must try this, green pepper notes but without being overly vegetal, light body, long finish. red berries, good tannins on the finish.

Paumanok visit (LI): much better oak balance, nice light wine, good tannins, bell pepper present (as it should be) but in a good way, delicious wine that i would take over most simmilarly priced Loir reds

Tannin and bright fruit, actice and open. Light mouth feel. Mid ruby with slight tawny color. Herbaceous base with hint of wet leathr and mulberry. Very good.
