This is certainly the most fun wine that I make. A blend of Cabernet Franc from my new Avant-Garde Vineyard in Dundee Hills (80%) and Pinot Noir from my Estate Vineyard(20%). The enticing nose is loaded with blackberry, crushed blueberry, cocoa and wet slate. A medley of black fruit envelops the bright palate, accented with black pepper, cocoa and stony minerality. The finish is persistent, broad and powerful yet harmonious. Tempting to drink now but best from 2024 to 2037.
