Nice sweet red. Almost like a red wine cooler. I really liked it, but probably Bobbie wouldn't drink it very much otherwise. We drank this on our Kona "weekend" trip at while at Paniolo Greens. — 9 years ago

Acid trip is right. Yet it is savory. There is a Honeyed edge to the lemons that keeps this interesting and lively. Day 2 was the best. — 9 years ago

Updating some tasting notes after my trip to Napa a few weeks back.

Toss up between this and the Verasion Cab...this one has a longer finish, and that's fine by me. — 9 years ago

Awesome and HUGE! Even better after a long day with kids, an icky rainy day and a trip to build a bear. A gorgeous bouquet with a masculine edge and fruit that becomes more expressive as it opens. The finish rocks. Long briary fruit tones with spice and warmth. — 12 years ago

I've stayed away from most Constellation brand wines for a while now. Franciscan, in particular, was one of their properties which I've always felt they were missing the mark on as it just wasn't living up to their potential, imho. But, I was pleasantly surprised by their current releases on a recent trip up. So, tonight, I had the 2014 vintage with a NY steak & roasted asparagus. The wine was very fruit forward & had good tannins. I still think Franciscan could do better, overall, but definite improvement from, say, 10 yrs ago. — 8 years ago

Beautifully balanced Brunello! Barbi certainly has a special space in my heart as I visited that winery with my wife during our first joint trip to Italy! 2008 is ready but could certainly lay for 5/7 more years in my option before losing some main vintage character — 9 years ago

4th red of the trip and this one takes the cake. So smooth with a lingering finish that is slightly sharp but full of oak and smoke. Really nice. — 11 years ago
