2014 Cabernet Franc

 
Consensus: Starting to drink well. Probably needs decanting, and definitely a bit of air.
Les Garagistes Cabernet Franc
  • VINEYARD:
    Elephant Mountain Vineyard
  • pH AT BOTTLING: 3.65
  • ALCOHOL: 13.62%
  • Not much nose when I tried it. More integrity and Franc-i-ness than the 2013, a nice amount of tannin and acidity, a kind of candy-floral in the mouth. A little watery at the core, and not much finish. Hopefully, another year for the water to integrate and this'll be a nice Franc (for Elephant Mtn).
