Really solid but still a baby. May be underrating it

I'm loving some Loire Cab Franc right now. Bigger style, dark and dense. Black fruit, iron, turned earth.

Enjoying. Earthy followed by dark fruit. Mild tannins and nice acid.

Dark and more intense than other Bourgueil we've had. Lots of acidity but not a lot of body, dry, some earthiness, green pepper. @aisforalan liked it more than me. From Flatiron Wines.
