Not what I expected. Tasted sweeter than I expected, despite declared residual sugar of only 7 g/L. Reminded me of a German Pinot Noir. Round cherry fruit flavours make this a very pleasant wine, although not quite what I think of as Cab Franc. Not my first choice for roast meats.

The 2021 isn’t listed so I will have to review here. a very pleasant wine and perhaps a little drier than the vintage noted above. 88 points still seems right.
