Despite plenty of vanilla and oak on the nose, this Cab Franc is powerful enough to show plenty of varietal character: scents of tobacco and flowers are accented by just the merest hint of green bean. On the palate, the cassis fruit stands out, shaded by layers of cinnamon and clove, with less weight than a Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. Supple, spicy and long on the finish.
