CREW Cabernet Franc VQA

Heady aromas of dark, ripe berry fruit, cedar and dark, toasty notes open this dense, fruit-laden behemoth. Briary berry, black plum and black currant garnished with mocha and licorice coat the palate persisting through the lengthy aftertaste. It's mid-full weight with good balance, substantial texture and a perceptible tannin underpinning. Pop corks 2016 - 2020 Score - 4.5 Stars (out of 5). (Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, May 8, 2013)
