A dark ruby red wine from a Umpqua Valley producer that consistently make good wine. The nose is floral, black cherry, dark berry fruits, leather and vanilla. This is a rich full bodied wine on the palate, generous dark fruit with a more tart acidic finish with a layered tannic structure beneath. A very tasty Cabernet Franc with food or on its own. This has aging potential in the 5 to 8 year range but is good now.

I’ve been waiting to try this since my last visit to the vineyard, luckily 38 Central had it there this week. A light colored wine with a nose of pie cherry, vanilla, charcoal and slight white pepper. The palate shows a nice fruit and complex layer of acid at the middle palate. The finish is dry and tannic, supple overtones and very long finish.
