I don’t usually do this, plug a sold out wine, but this review is for all of you who were lucky enough to pick up a bottle or two (or three) of this wine.I dubbed this a Johnny B. Goode wine – more on that in a bit; but first let’s discuss this wine in a little more detail. It’s a blend of Cabernet Franc (50%) and Merlot (50%), made from a light vintage year (which is also mirrored in its colour) and aged in American oak. The flavours aren’t mind blowing, yet, but considering the year, the wine is darn good. We’ll start with the nose of cassis, blackberry, strawberry and some green pepper (most likely the Franc influence). In the mouth, it’s easy going down, with light tannins and raspberry flavours, along with, and here’s the Johnny B. Goode influence: earth and wood (for those of you who don’t remember: “Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans, way back up in the woods among the evergreens, there stood a log cabin made of earth and wood, where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode”). It’s a well-made wine, with great taste and good structure that should age well over the next couple of years, when the flavours will be more on-par with “mind blowing”. Only 40 cases were produced (that’s 480 bottles), so the wine was in limited supply but high demand, higher than I thought – but that’s because it is so Goode, and going to get better.
