The key word here is value! Good wine but great price @ $9.

Not bad. Spicy up front, not much on the finish. Better after letting it decant.

This is the second S. France bottle I've had lately that had a strong raisin element. Perhaps it's much warmer there than I imagine - most were guessing Zin for the grape. There was enough earthiness to at least make you consider old world. A strange bottle.

Region is only 40 acres in size! Very small. Nice smell of some cherries as well as taste.

Great fruit on the nose, purple fruit and old world rich earth on the palate. For under $10, this Cab Franc is a great transition wine for the California big red lover. Makes me want some runny cheese.
