| TASTING NOTE: Unoaked and made entirely from estate fruit, this wine blends 80% Cab Franc with 20% Tannat. What results is a charmingly fruit-forward, food-friendly wine bursting with ripe black currant embroidered with delicate mint and cedar cross-stitching, all with enough tannin structure to show beautifully through 2024.
