Tasting Notes:

This is a wonderful cabernet franc. It might not be the best value, as similar examples from the Loire can often be found for less money, but I like to support my local wine makers. This is a bright garnet color, but translucent. There is tons of black raspberry flavor, with a hint of bitter greeness on the back end that I like. There also is an aroma of fresh pencil shavings.
