2013 Cabernet Franc

 
Consensus: Drinking at what we think is its prime.
Les Garagistes Cabernet Franc
  • VINEYARD:
    Elephant Mountain Vineyard
  • pH AT BOTTLING: 3.65
  • ALCOHOL: 13.85%
  • Succulent and sweet cranberry and some tart cherry in the mouth. It's a little low on acid (so it'll be best a little below room temp), but there’s plenty of life (the cranberry) in this wine to keep it lively. Really delicious and I’d say drinking perfectly now.
  • Strangely oxidized note in the nose, a little leaf/stem. Some candy fruit. Simple, and a little flabby to my taste
