From last week's tasting led by Martine Saunier, this Basque Cabernet Franc has much to offer. I love Cab Franc, personally, with all of its aromatic funkiness and rustic charm. Herri Mina Irouleguy does this, along with notes of forest floor, wintergreen and pie cherries. Silky on entry, the tannins hit the sides of the mouth. Finishes with pink peppercorn and Herbs de Garrique. Retails for around $33.00.
