Podernuovo a Palazzone Argirio Cabernet Franc 2018

This is a beautiful cabernet franc with crushed berries and blackberries, as well as hints of chocolate and walnuts. Fresh bay leaf and other herbs, too. Full-bodied with round, polished tannins and a flavorful finish. Long. Cabernet franc. Needs time to come more together, but terrific potential. Try after 2025. Score – 95.
