Peju, Cabernet Franc, Napa 2021

Aromas of violets and mocha are captivating, and top notes are floral and focused. Stern tannins grip the tongue, but not a hint of bitterness can be found as spiced plum is swathed in dusty cocoa and crushed boysenberry and balsamic settle on the palate with dried violets. Reminiscent of a chic Chinon.
