Candy, candy, and more candy! lemon meringue pie, blue cotton candy, and peaches on the nose. It also gives off that gelatin, rosewater, almost dustiness of Turkish delight. Rhubarb tartness, rocket sugar candies, watermelon candy, fuzzy peaches candy, and saltwater taffy for tasting notes. It’s really like taking a fist full of candy and throwing it in your mouth. I’ve never had anything like it and I absolutely love it. — 5 years ago

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, spices, licorice, chocolates, light tobacco leaf, vegetables, peppercorn, earth and black tea.

This is a very tasty Cabernet Franc from Sonoma County. I had this vintage over 4 years ago, and it is still drinking nicely.
Balanced and tangy, but lost some of its fruits and gained complexity.
Wine Enthusiasts 90 points.
Easy drinking, and good by itself or with food. I paired it with a burger and fries.
100% Cabernet Franc grapes.
