Notes of dark plums and black raspberries with licorice, black olives and hints of smoked bacon. Firm and structured with a medium to full body. Tannins are ripe and velvety and stay long on the back palate. Spiced, dark-fruited finish. 100% cabernet franc. Drink or hold. Score - 92. (jamessuckling.com, March 27, 2023)
