2013 Random Wine Company Cabernet Franc- USA, Oregon, Columbia Valley (2/20/2017)
Medium ruby with a spicy raspberry nose. Lightly dry with medium fruit and body showing a lot of restraint though not austere, old world in the Loire look-a-like category which means this is some good stuff that will hold it’s own with some of the best Chinon and Bourgiel. Great balance with the acid and tannins bracketing the fruit. Glad to have purchased another six pack this Berserker Day. Definitely a good food wine. (92 pts.)
Thank you for the kind note! I was really fortunate to get beautiful fruit from Rattlesnake Road Vyd in 2013, not a whole lot to do except step aside and let nature do her thing. Ron, thank you for the kind words, hope to drink some wine with you soon!
Thanks John! I’m really humbled by the comparison! The vineyard is something special, and I think that as it ages, the wines have the potential to become even more representative of the unique site.
