Wow! Finally opened one of the few bottles of this that I picked up in the spring. Sweet raspberry and blueberry with nice toasty oak (vanilla) and sweet spice aromas. Gorgeous dark fruit on the palate with dried cherries & blueberries, and the recurring sweet spice and vanilla. Well integrated tannins, decent acidity. Drinking lovely now, this will only improve over the next few years. A premium Ontario Cab Franc at a very reasonable $20, at least for now! Buy some for your cellar before they realize what they they’ve got! 🙂

Beauty of a Cabernet Franc from Palatine!
