The winery was one of the first to specialize in Cab Franc, and Premier Etage is their reserve-style bottling. The '03 is a very good wine, but misses the richness of the '01 and '02. With its soft, silky, almost Pinot-esque mouthfeel and flavors of cherries and cassis, it possesses great elegance and sophistication. Drink now.
