Viewpointe Cabernet Franc 2010

An all too rare example of Lake Erie North Shore's potential with Bordeaux variety reds. This is a quite substantial, complex and deep cab franc that is maturing into prime time but holding some vitality. Expect lifted aromas of red currants, raspberry, wood smoke, capers and spice. It's mid-weight, firm, tart and sour edged with some green tannin; but impressive length. Could still use another two years in bottle but fine now as well. Scores on depth and complexity. Score - 90.
