Nice to have balanced Napa Cab Franc that isn't heavy handed. Expresses the wonderful amount of sunshine we get in CA while maintaining great acid. A kiss of oak to add depth and aroma but not dominating. Lovely dark mineral and graphite notes backdrop dense fruit, violets, and spice.

Nice stuff. Should be better know for as long as they have been making it!

Awesome cab franc from CA, and a showstopper of a producer - the usual dusty, dried violet flavors but with a bit more body and dark fruit than older world examples making this a crowd pleaser for the equal opportunity cab franc fan. Try with grilled lamb or roasted pork tenderloin.

A spicy and earthy nose, palate is light, medium body with mild notes of pepper.

May be good in a couple years but too hot for me.
