Tasting Notes
2022 was a small vintage across the board but these younger Cabernet Franc vines only were able to produce a small but scrappy 67 cases. The nose leans into classic Cab Franc aromas of fresh raspberry and violets peppered with cassis and bell. Normally harvested early and more so because of the late heat, this wine is more of an ethereal style of Franc clocking in at 12.1% alcohol. A lightly toasted French oak really balances well with this welterweight and rounds out the palate. A fabulous wine that hits both hard and somehow very soft at the same time.
