Corcelettes Cabernet Franc 2020

Keremeos, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Similkameen is a great place to grow cabernet franc, and the folks at Corcelettes are in tune with the notion. Despite a heavy lashing of oak, this wine has the stamina to overcome the wood and spice by exhibiting a modicum of elegance. Look for sweet black fruit, including black cherries, black raspberries, licorice, olives, and dark chocolate in the background. Big, robust, and not near ready to drink, this is one for 2025-2030. Expected to be released in the fall of 2022.Tasted: 12 July 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
