"Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Cabernet Franc charges out of the gate with rambunctious notions of ripe blackberries, wild blueberries and red currant jelly scents plus hints of tapenade, lilacs and tilled soil. Full-bodied, richly fruited and with a gorgeous velvety texture, it has a lively backbone delivering great tension with lots of layers and a fragrant, earthy finish."
