Notes consistent over 5 bottles - Lovely young expression of Cab Franc. Outstanding with food. I hope to be able to taste this with a little more age. Light as a feather with depth of flavor.

Iron, green pepper with tangy plummy fruit. Fairly simple but the finish is long and it is a nice pure expression of a young cab franc.

good wine, but a bit darker and richer than i remember. perhaps this is because the wine i remember is saumur-champigny and this is saumur. there are like 5 different bottles from this guy in this price range - the printemps, and etc. this is not my favorite of them.

not as light as i remember from the trade tasting, which is fine. vegetal upon opening, but expands with air and is very well balanced, with lovely dark fruit on a compellingly gravelly nose. ripe and plucky with good acidity on the palate, and a nice herbal/jalepeno edge to the fruit on the finish. really good under $15 cab franc.
