Arietta
H Block Hudson Vineyards Cabernet Franc Merlot
Carneros, North Coast, California, USA
Sensual nose; campfire, pen ink, roasted herbs, jerky, toasted oak, blueberry tart, cooked blackberries, Asian spices, puff pastry. The palate is nicely layered. All the same flavors of the nose along with red currants, bramble berry, and white pepper. In a really nice place right now.

Dec 21st, 2024Really nice red from Napa made in a very right bank style. Quite balanced, great length, some nice fruit and tannins are medium. Great texture. Nice pairing with a lamb tagine.

Very nice. Long finish - a bit dry on the mid palate but nice nose of muddled bramableberry and caramel.
