Notes from the second day. Bright fruit (dark berry, cassis), some green herbal notes, with earthiness in the finish. Medium- body, medium acidity, some drying tannins in the finish. Lower alcohol and less ripe than some other vintages I've had of this, which is nice because it allows the herbal and greener notes of Cab Franc to come out some. Always a good value. Meant for shorter term drinking (3-5 years from the vintage).

Good substance, maybe a bit light, but enough character to visualize it adding to dinner. Fresh CF character, fun. At $18 I bought some.
