Nose is a combo of manure, herbals and cherries. Palate is so juicy and joyful. Velvety tannins. Sweet fruit and such finesse. Showing so well but has some years in it.

Black plum, dark cherries and dark floral bouquet on the nose. It's similar to Gamay. The fruit is sweet. Dark cherries, plum, poached strawberries & pomegranate. The fruits are a little sweet & a touch syrupy. Melted dark chocolate. The dark rich earth is there but it's soft and elegant. The acidity is lovely. The finish is rich, full, long & elegant. Really nice wine that most would not call Cab Franc blind. Most would say gamay including many Somm's. Label has that "Hellboy" look.

Глина, скотный двор, шкурка арахиса, чёрный перец, вишня, красная слива, свекла, тонкая марганцовка, порох, мел, железо, кровь. Атлетичное среднее тело с живой кислотностью и ещё молодыми, чуть просвечивающими через сок танинами. Мощно и пронзительно, с естественной питкой концентрацией, в меру напряженной структурой и небанальной фактурой. Натуральный фанк бесстыж, но не уродлив.

A truly great wine. Nose is cherries. And cherry flowers. Palate is literally the first minute of the first day of cherry season. So fresh and juicy it’s almost painful. A hint of licorice. Spicy. This is young. No idea what this will taste like in five years. Just a stunningly well made wine. Very very distinctive. Bought from Fass Selections.

Medium to light bodied, red currant, green rhubarb, quite acid driven. Touch of funk, in a nice way.
