($23) Ruby-red. Vibrant red berry and cherry aromas are underscored by pungent minerality and rose; this smells like a great Chambolle-Musigny. Sweet raspberry and floral pastille flavors are enlivened by brisk acidity and gain sweetness with air. Very suave, focused and strikingly pure wine with superb complexity and poise.

Very nice wine, with some terrific vegetal characteristics on the nose. Blind, I would have thought this to be a new world cab franc. Good structure, nice red fruit with again some underlying earthiness...a very good buy for the price.
