2nd review on this, third time tasting. Great wine but scored a bit lower than original (maybe I was too excited about one of my fav wineries). Just needs more time. The nose is beautiful but the palate needs a bit more time to balance out. Great complexity and on its way the being a well balanced delight…just another few years.

Medium bodied with dark violet color I double decanted the wine and it surprisingly still seemed young after seven years. More Cab Franc (18%) in this vintage blend than some of the others it was smooth and subtle with cocoa, fig, and blueberry. Paired well with BBQ St. louis ribs.
