Ravine Cabernet Franc 2021

This is a nicely even, well balanced cab franc landing somewhere between rugged and juicy. The nose is lifted with classic raspberry jam, fine herbs nicely fitted with moderate oak. Very well balanced with fine acidity, some flesh and warmth, then drying sandy but astringent tannin. Very good to excellent length. Best now to 2030. Tasted July 2024. Score – 90.
