A Cabernet Franc from stony-clay soils that spends two years in barrel. Expect lots of peppery spice from top to bottom here. This is a wine with notes of anise and clove aromatics, with silky, velvety tannins and plush fruit through the mid-palate. There is sweetness from oak here, sure, but it's so well integrated through to a long finish.
