This Cabernet Franc comes from nine year old vines ... the wine, aged 26 months in a blend of French and American oaks, is a limited 90 case production batch. The nose hints at mild tobacco and sour cherry aromas ... Palate begins with cherry then turns a touch sour but always remains fresh. There's a slight bitterness on the finish but it's nothing that overwhelms the wine or your enjoyment of it. Drink over the next 2-3 years. Price: $19.20 - Rating: *** 1/2
