Serious Cab Franc. Black fruit, iron, and bramble. A little tight right now, this will be sensational in a few years, though amazing right now

Typically love this wine. Something was just off on this bottle. Don't want to slam it in terms of a rating because I know it should be better. Not flawed, just knees and elbows.

Riper vintage thus riper aromatics, less freshness but still very lengthy and balanced.
