A friendly carbonic upfront pop followed by a touch of tart berry eschewing in a dusting of zippy tannin
Provocative spicy notes appear just before its nuttiness and terrific acidity cuts through the sweetness
Drink it over the coming two or three decades

Amulet Estate - Red 2019 (750ml) California Napa Valley Cabernet Franc A friendly carbonic upfront popTheres a deep purple hue that extends to the edge of the glass. Vibrant, pure aromas of red cherry, dried sage, violets, and freshly tilled earth fill the glass. The wine is soft on the palate with flavors of crushed raspberry, dried blueberry, cocoa powder and black tea. A distinct note of minerality is evident, along with the fine textured, mouth filling tannins that linger through the finish.
