Simply the best.
I sampled this wine at the 14th annual vintage tasting event in August. It was the best tasting Cab Franc that I have ever had. Aged 20 months in an Oak barrel really made a difference here.
Since they couldn’t sell their products at the wine tasting event Wanda and I made a visit to Erie Shore Vineyard a week later and bought a couple of bottles. I should have bought more!! I just heard that they are almost sold out now or may already be sold out. Now I have to save my to bottles for a special event.
Gary, I took your suggestion and opened one of our Reserve Cab Franc’s from Erie Shore. Great choice. I forgot just how nice this wine was. Beautiful blackberry taste matched prefectly with the turkey. Nice choice. Merry Christmas.
