2010 vintage. First thing I notice is the brown, red color. I think I get olive on the nose. Nicely balanced acidity and tannins. The wife thinks she noted dried cherry and licorice. Very interesting wine. — 8 years ago

I wrote this yesterday but I guess never hit submit so I'll try and remember. It was delicious. Juicy, with long lasting tannins that gripped. Great value. I think I paid around $12 for it. Cab Franc like this is definitely one of my favorite wines — 8 years ago

2011 vintage on December 31 2016. I noticed here we drank the 2012 last year and loved it. This was very good, but I definitely expected more, perhaps because I purposely lasted it down. Had the silky mouthfeel I love in good Pinot. Very delicate, but seemed to be missing the tanin? All in all, most enjoyable. — 8 years ago

Big and juicy and chewy. I can't take credit for this description, but cherry liquor is spot on. — 8 years ago

Wonderful wine. Juicy, perfumed, long finish. Had this a bit hung over and it was still awesome. — 8 years ago

Just a great everyday wine. I believe I paid $11.99 or so for this. Interesting and deliscious — 8 years ago

Having this with a bit of a sore throat. Very nice. Silky mouthfeel. I keep my wine upstairs in a room that was about 64 degrees Fahrenheit. Had the first glass at this temp. Put the bottle outside to chill it down, and the second glass is drinking much better. Not sure if it's opened up more, or the cooler temperature is balancing everything out. Really nice. — 8 years ago

Just a really good value. Herbs, tannins that hold. Was a bit closed at first, but after a few minutes in the glass it opened right up. — 8 years ago

Hugely disappointed in this. I had a note on the bottle from 2008 saying not to open before 2016. I can't recall where I might have read that but I thought it would be special to have it on New Years Eve with some nice filet mignon. The wine was very flat. No acidity. No tanin. I don't know if it passed it's peak, or just wasn't that good to begin with. We don't lay down too many wines. — 8 years ago
