Tasting Notes: A delightful wine and perfect for when you're in the mood for something a little different. Bored with one-note, berry-rich Merlot? Tired of the predictability of tight tannin Cabernet Sauvignon? Unsure of the peppery-power of Syrah? Then give Cabernet Franc a try - especially, a BC Franc. And if I've convinced you thus far, why not try the wine that helped put BC Cabernet Franc on the map?
Pungent, aromatic and brooding are my favourite three words for this wine. Full of dark berry fruit, intense earthy-herbs and meaty-metallic aromas and flavours with plenty of mellow spice and feminine touches like candied fruit, mocha and floral notes. Enjoy now or over the next 3-4 years with some further development possible. Drink now-2020.
