2023 | Pride Mountain Cabernet Franc | Sonoma County The Hilt Wines green almondPerfumed, with aromas of blood plums, black olives, dark cherries, dried herbs, violets, licorice and some umami. The palate is plush and fruit driven, with fine tannins and a juicy, mouthwatering mid palate. There is so much freshness, texture and finesse, with no hard edges. Delicious now, but can hold. Drink or hold. 95 Pts James Suckling
