點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：3594

The 2008 Gran Cabernet Franc comes up short on varietal character but is, nevertheless, a tasty, flavorful wine with a pleasing perfume of herbs, spices, and black fruits, a smooth texture, and good (but not outstanding) depth and concentration. Drink it over the next 5-6 years. Importer: Paul Hobbs Imports, Sebastopol, CA; tel. (707) 824-9879

Smells volatile and balsamic, much like salad dressing. There’s no doubting this wine is Cab Franc—it’s herbal and foresty, with a soft mouthfeel and herbal berry flavors topped off by oregano and basil. A rustic wine that’s probably too herbal for most palates.——M.S.(12/31/2011)—— 83
