Harvested in stages in Gualtallary over a five-week period, this Cabernet Franc with 8% Malbec, aged in foudres, is a grand statement about the virtues of the variety. Sweet and sour cherries dominate a nose that reveals light hints of pyrazine, but are then overtaken in the glass by black currant. An open wine with a juicy palate, firm structure and polished tannins, presenting an engaging character and a long, fruity finish.

Juicy and full of red currant and raspberry flavors that feature a lively blend of crushed green herbal notes. Dark chocolate and espresso accents on the finish. Drink now through 2024. 4,000 cases made, 2,700 cases imported.
