This is among the best Cab Francs ever bottled in California. Normally in need of toning up with other Bordeaux grapes, this 100% varietal wine needs no help. It is profoundly good, with the weight and tannins of Cabernet Sauvignon but a silky, feminine quality all its own. Subtle and nuanced; it doesn't hit you over the head with extraction and oak, but is complex, layered, measured.
