Napa Valley Cabernet Franc 2014

Decanted for 40 minutes and drank over two hours. Stunning. Medium-plus tannins, a little chalky in a good way... maybe that’s the clay note people say. Bright fruit on the nose. Cherry, caramel, spice, and a floral/grassy hint. Leathery finish. The longer we went, picked up red apple and orange zest. LOVED it. — 7 years ago

@Jenks it's in such a good place now. I'm also pissed I drank the majority of mine too soon. Amazing what that extra 8mos in the bottle will do for some wines.

Teeter-Totter

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

2014 teeter-totter cabernet sauvignon by Fait Main Wines. 14.1%. Wow. What a great big cab at a great price. 55 dollars and compares to a 150 dollar bottle of cab. The color is dark dark dark! The bouquet is Blackberry cobbler and violets. The initial palate is dark currants, blackberry, and figs giving it a nice sweet ness similar to Orin Swifts wines. Not as sweet as a Big Camus however. I really want to compare it to Miner cabernet. The mid palate loads me up with vanilla and spice. It is oaky with low tannins. It is bone dry on the finish!!! Good God where is my water? To sum it up, opulent body, velvety tannins, minimum acidity, and downright delicious!!!!!!!! I can’t recommend this wine highly enough. if you ever find it, buy it! — 7 years ago
