Tasted blind, which helps avoid my snooty biases. Love. There is something northern-Italian about the slightly bitter, tannic component to the balance. Pretty cherry fruit. Delicious. Amazing value.

Ravines - digestif. Chewy, plums, hint of soil and soot.

What I will say is this wine is consistent, as my previous note still holds. Very light with little nose and mild Cherry flavors. Next to no finish, if I were tasting this blind I would never guess Cab Franc. I'll stick to the lovely Finger Lakes Rieslings from now on.

Fine. Simple. Not that distinctive. $20.
