Classic Loire Cab Franc notes. Enough richness to make this round and drinkable. Light (due to low alcohol) and all the blue fruit and pepper (both peppercorn and bell pepper) notes expected. Does exactly what it should.

Okay, it's not a 95. I don't generally post a score, but I had to counter the mid-80 scores below. This is a beautiful wine! Fresh, pure and energetic. Clean red fruit, slight vegetal note late in the finish. So fun to drink. Still a baby, it will be interesting to see where this goes with time. Too bad the vines are dying.

A very wild aroma, full of berries plus all sorts of herbal and floral components, including a spearmint-like note, and something almost bark-like in the background. Lots of lift and very little density on the palate; the finish is on the short side, which isn't surprising given the vintage. Highly enjoyable nonetheless.

Good for what it is, think it may start going downhill soon
