Score 94/100 · Drink 2021-2031, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Sep 2021

The 2018 Cabernet Franc Estate is made from free-run juice and aged 21 months in 100% new French oak. It has a deep ruby-purple color with deep aromas of iron, cigar ash, underbrush and rose petals with a core of fresh blackcurrant fruits and notes of dark spices. The medium-bodied palate manages intensity and freshness, dark, juicy fruits, a pleasingly grainy texture and long, spiced finish.

Chocolate, gravelly earth, blueberries, and cassis notes emerge from the 2018 Cabernet Franc Estate, which is 100% Cabernet Franc, all from the estate. With a rich, full-bodied profile, a building sense of minerality, good freshness, and a great finish, it's a rich, powerful, mineral-laced Cabernet Franc to enjoy over the coming 10-15 years.
