Sineann Cabernet Franc Champoux Vineyard 08
Sineann Cabernet Franc Champoux Vineyard 08 -Huge, burly, chocolate cherries and spice. Under the black, black fruit scents, hints of bacon fat, lilac, roasted meat, and graphite. Gushing black cherry, black plum, blackberry jam, and just a hint of savory umame fill the mouth. A very full bodied, black fruit dominated, unusually plush Cabernet Franc. If this is indicative of the 2008 vintage, it's going to be huge.- Jean
Dark with forward, complex aromatics, it has a huge mid-palate and a long finish. - the winery

2006 Vintage Tasting Notes
Previous vintage tasting notes: Big and rich, with flinty, graphite notes characteristic of Cabernet Franc. Paul Gregutt, Seattle Times, says: "Better still is his Sineann 2006 Champoux Vineyard Cabernet Franc ($48) that captures the grape's earthy, herbal elements while keeping the fruit tight and muscular."
