Graeser Cabernet Franc 2002

spoMember

Sweet and syrupy red fruit aroma. Cherry, black licorice and vanilla cream on the palate. The finish is sort of funky, earthy and at times wood-like. Tannins are mildly drying and the acid is adequate. This wine is sort of bitter and just a bit too sweet for its own good. Serve at just above cellar temperature.

I think this wine needs age. After being open a couple days it becomes almost savory, umami

. Much more cohesive and pleasant than the evening it was opened.

I cannot up the points because I am not a fan of wines that need a 3 day decant, but I think in three years this will be great.

Is this pure cab franc or are there any other grapes?
