Ashes & Diamonds No. 1 Cabernet Franc

'This new producer offers the first vintage of this wine. Made by Steve Matthiasson in a classically restrained style, it was given plenty of room to develop varietal character, with 25% Merlot adding softness. It shines in a texture of dense black raspberry dotted in black pepper and pencil—its herbaceous character in balance. An underlying freshness keeps it compelling and bright.' - Wine Enthusiast - 93 Points
