there's 5% malbec in the blend, but the austere, scrapey tannins of the franc still dominate the finish. the fruit is pretty, with blueberry character to burn. the wine hits the palate well in the beginning, but seems to sag a bit midpalate before heading into that astringent finish, enlivened by toasty new oak. if you like blueberries, you'll like this wine.
