From the northern part of Sonoma comes this gem. My buddy brought it to the tasting and paid $38 for it. I was excited to try it as you know how I love the Franc.
We were outside by the fire pit so I could not really make out the color or clarity. The nose was gorgeous though. Violets and plum notes with a touch of oak on the first whiff. Fresh and bracing initial attack with flowers, cinnamon, plum torte and vanilla creme. Rich acidity and smooth tannins make for a long cellaring potential. This is a well made and deelish wine that gets 92 points from me. Well hidden 14.4% alcohol and a long finish make this a 5 star wine. Salut….
