750mL is not enough. This is one of those wines that there is simply not enough of once it hits its stride. Great example of Cabernet Franc. Also check out the 2010 vintage. Tasting great.

Good but not excellent Cabernet Franc The best New York Cabernet I have had, but still a weak showing. Not worth its high price. Real proof that red wine should not be made in New York.
