The 2017 Cabernet Franc is a gorgeous wine with tons of character. Bright red cherry, red plum, spice, graphite, dried flowers, mint and a whole range of spice notes infuse the Franc with tons of flavor complexity. Juicy and pliant, with terrific purity, the Franc is a clear winner in this range. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, January 2020)

Big, bold, racy with chocolate and raspberry notes. Huge, but lovely.

A fine Cabernet Franc with black cherry in fragrance and taste. Low Tannins. Nicely opens after 30 minutes of air. August 2020.
