    Cloudlift Cellars 2016 Ascent Cabernet Franc (Yakima Valley)

    Aromas of green pepper, garden herbs and stem are at the fore. The palate brings soft, creamy, chocolate and green pepper flavors that persist. Coffee notes linger on the finish. There are good things going on, but they don't all seem to be in sync at present. Tasted twice with consistent notes.
