Spectacular Cabernet franc to celebrate our 1 year anniversary. Nice little half bottle for an appetizer before our steaks.

Monthly WTF wine group meet up.
If this was my bottle, I would have held it as this has got to be fairly fresh off the truck, but I won’t turn down Pride when it’s opened! Aromatic and intoxicating. Potpourri, peppercorn, rhubarb tart, and spice cake aromatics; tight and young even after an hour plus of air. There is a graphite, lead, black cherry tart and fig finish. Tannic. Will definitely go up a point or two.

Decant for about 45 min. Was still tight. Next day in closed decanter - expressive. Pepper, dark fruit, tobacco.
