"The 2023 Cabernet Franc Sans Soufre is a dark, potent wine. Purplish/black fruit, lavender, licorice and cloves bring out the darker side of the variety. The Sans Soufre is usually a bit brighter than this. The 2023 is noticeably dark, reflecting the late harvest and a slight change in vineyard sources."

"Sourced predominantly from Happy Canyon and Ballard Canyon, the 2023 Cabernet Franc Sans Soufre is pure and vibrant on the nose. It straddles dark and bright fruit aromas with fresh herbs and pottery clay notions. The palate is a lovely combination of playful and serious, with a spry, savory texture that concludes with a weightless, succulent finish."
