Bookwalter 2023 Suspense Cabernet Franc 94 pts

The 2023 J. Bookwalter ‘Suspense’ Cabernet Franc comes from this warmer vintage, as the wine has 17% Cabernet Sauvignon blended in. Mainly coming from the Connor Lee Vineyard, this is fresh and rich stuff with lovely herbal notes on the nose alongside tar and black currants. Gorgeous now, with a savory edge, watch this evolve over the next ten plus years.
