I did not find this wine too acidic as others have. Early nose is of blueberries, lilac, lavender, pine, grapefruit, leather and spice. The taste was surprisingly similar to the nose, but both vanished quickly. It has a softness characteristic of a cab franc, but a lighter body than is typical for Sonoma, which allows a bit of complexity to show through. All in all a very pleasant surprise. I would not wait much more to consume this wine.

Ok for what it was. Pleasant enough, but not varietally correct, could not tell it was a Cab Franc, just a red wine. Nothing special, not worth the $20 we paid. Tasted like a red blend house wine that was not offensive or anything special.

Simple drinkable wine. Thin, blue fruit, not very balanced, too acidic. Short finish.
