Riper vintage makes for a juicy wine. Some really tasty, spicy Blau.

Sweet & vicious. This has gone from a great pizza wine to a holyshitwhatamidrinking wine. Echoes of northern Rhone.

Evokes Cabernet Franc a bit. Whole cluster/stems add some spiciness to the red fruit & an earthy poblano note. I haven't tried a ton of Blaufrankisch, but I really like the ones I have been able to. Equal parts seductive and rustic.
