2Hawk 2014 Cabernet Franc (Rogue Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Franc Oregon
Winery: 2Hawk / Rogue Valley

The fruit here is plenty ripe, with flavors of raspberry jam. Tannins are also substantial, and the scents and flavors leave an impression of slightly burnt coffee, underscored with graphite. This definitely needs decanting and/or aggressive aeration.
