Comforting leather shoe polish meets cranraspberry on the nose. Palate of fresh green cranberry, mineral and crushed rock.

Red berries, purple flower and earth. Lots of complexity.

Best showing yet. Varietally and regionally pure. Seamless and a great food pairing wine. Good acidity with green pepper and dark fruit achieving equipoise.

Powerful unfiltered Cab Franc. Rustic elegance describes this best. Could stand up to very strong rich cheese.

Unbelievably funky, acidic nose of Roquefort, feet, and rotting earth with a surprisingly fruity, slightly balsamic feeling over the tongue. Develops with endless complexity over hours in the glass. The cork I pulled came up stained and dirty, almost portending wine flaws, but this was a gorgeous bottle from start to finish for those who like Terroir and yeast-driven wines.
