Note di degustazione
The 2009 Cabernet Franc Blueline comes across as quite rich and lush. Mocha, sweet spices, blackberries and espresso are some of the notes that flow from this big, tannic wine. While there isn't a whole lot of varietal character here, the wine is attractive in its own way.

The 2009 Cabernet Franc Blueline comes across as quite rich and lush. Mocha, sweet spices, blackberries and espresso are some of the notes that flow from this big, tannic wine. While there isn’t a whole lot of varietal character here, the wine is attractive in its own way. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2016. These wines from Hourglass are made in an up-front, juicy style that emphasizes fruit. I found many of the wines distinctly sweet and alcoholic, with little to offer in the way of varietal definition. I also tasted a number of older vintages, and while the wines do hold, they don’t materially improve over time. Tel. (707) 968-9332
