Whoa... Totally thought this was a Loire Valley cab franc, but in fact it's Italian! Great balance of fruit, sharp acidity and mossy earth.

Raspberries with a dry finish. Good acidity that paired well with my homemade chicken chili

Vegetal and savory. Bell pepper and wet earth. Nothing complex but enjoyable if you like this style.

Black fruit on the nose, with a hint of green bell pepper and spice. Very similar on the palate. Best cab franc I've had.

Very smooth and soft for a cab franc, but with assertive tannins and faint fruit. Not as harsh as some cab francs.
