Recommended by Vintage Assessments! A Best Buy |
Pair this wine with cheeses, barbecued burgers or thick steaks to tame the tannins, or tuck it away for a year or two. TASTING NOTE: 100% Cabernet Franc. Gorgeous example of Cabernet Franc. Youthful with potential to explode with floral perfumed notes, cassis and clove. Great depth. Its harmony saves it from becoming truculent, but protein is needed. Score - 96 (Decanter World Wine Awards, 2018) |
