This is an interesting take on Cabernet Franc- Carbonically macerated versus traditional maceration which has resulted in a very pale crimson colored wine with low viscosity (11.5% ABV).  The nose has medium intensity aromas of raspberry, earth, funk, macerated strawberry, wildflower and green pepper- very unique.  The palate is dry with medium (-) acidity, a light body and low tannins.  It’s a fruit forward wine with red raspberry, strawberry, red licorice, florals and a hint of green pepper.  The green note sticks out on the medium length finish, which I am really liking.  It’s not an overly complex wine, nor is it ageworty but it’s a fun and light representation of the varietal that gets 88 points from me.  At $ 28 it’s a 3 star effort to try out with some lighter fare.  Salut….
