RATINGS

94Vinous / IWC

...stellar wine....always had some percentage of blenders, but the 2019 is almost all Franc, and that really comes through in the wine's aromatic profile and overall energy. Silky tannins round out the finish.

92The Wine Advocate

...vibrant notions of redcurrant jelly, black raspberries and cedar, plus hints of pencil lead, wild sage and forest floor with a touch of dried mint. The medium to full-bodied palate is packed with vibrant red berry preserves and black fruit accents, supported by finely grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and with a skip in its step.

90Jeb Dunnuck

...medium-bodied and elegant, with pretty red (and some black) fruits as well as floral, earthy, and spicy aromas and flavors. Mid-weight and nicely balanced, with loads of charm...

TYPE

Red Wine, Cabernet Franc

This is a parent grape to Cabernet Sauvignon. It most likely originates from Basque country. It is an excellent blending grape, known for making the exquisite Cheval-Blanc. Franc is a little hardier on a vine than Sauvignon, but drinks smoothly at the table.
