Eponymous Cabernet Franc Macallister Vineyard 2009 brand_Catskill Distilling Company apical golden apple and BoscThis vintage exhibits complexity and intensity of aromas that are evident from the moment the cork is popped. Aromas hinting of blueberries, violets, orange blossom and hint of fresh thyme add to the enjoyment. This wine has a very balanced mouthfeel, with lively fruit and spice from entry to finish. It has a medium body, and a restrained tannin structure but one that is more than sufficient to allow for at least another 5 7 years of graceful aging.
