Nose: This is just lovely and classic Cabernet franc as it fills the glass with red cherries, herbs, tobacco leaf, leather, raspberries, celery stick, red currants, and roses.
Taste: The feel is Medium bodied with refreshing, medium+ acidity and chalky, medium+ tannins. The feel is elegant and balanced with red cherries, raspberries, red currants, tobacco leaf, leather, herbs, and roses.
Overall: This is youthful and wide open. This is right at that beautiful intersection of having a good amount of primary fruits and being open for business. There is plenty of life ahead and it will provide a lot of joy for years to come.

This is flat out delicious. Tense, austere, crunchy fruit that becomes deeper with air and a beautiful nose. We had this with pork milanese and green beans and was an awesome combination. A little vinegar in the sauce really perks up the dish and the wine tastes sweeter because of it Very solid bottle No hurry to drink this at all

huge brett on opening, needed 10 hours to settle down, and even then this is an acid driven vintage with a relatively thin body and very little ripeness to fruit.

Pnp with pork. Pretty, typical, not terribly complex. Good QPR. 12.5%

Surprisingly delicious given the notes from others. Nose was old world and wine was deft and concentrated. For the money- really good value.
