Mas Barrau
Vin de Pays du Gard Cabernet Franc
Languedoc, Languedoc Roussillon, France
I tend to geek out on Cabernet Franc, even though I recognize its limitations. This one was okay. It lacked the earthy funkiness that a lot of Cab Francs have, which is what I usually like about them. In reality, it’s probably more “sophisticated” than those I usually like, but in the end, it’s a middle of the road, good enough red that pairs well with meat. Next time I’ll get a weird NY State Cab Franc for the adventurousness of it all.

Red wine, has a lot of different flavors at once. Recommend smelling produce at a farmers market to learn and train palette
