Detert 2022 Cabernet Franc “Estate” Oakville, Napa Valley 96 Points

FMW 96 Points: “Intense aromatics jump out of the glass of this youngster.  The wine offers of dark purple hue, with stunning aromas of black stone fruits and cocoa.  The palate of this rich and inviting  Cabernet Franc is bold, yet silky and stocked with black currant, black berry, touches of chocolate, and a whiff of espresso bean. The wine finishes with a long and gorgeous fine-grained tannin finish.  Only 250 cases were produced. “

Winemaker Notes: “Cassis, blood orange, and violets. Powerful and full-bodied in the mouth with layers of mineral, dark fruits, and bittersweet chocolate. Impressive density, richness, and power with refined tannin. The finish is long and delicious, where the dark fruit flavors join licorice and dried herb notes. Exceptional texture and flavor range. 100% Cabernet Franc.’
