Disappointing impression with this wine. The flavor profile is overpowering and unpleasantly bitter. We've had better Cabernet Francs from the Finger Lakes region in the past.

Zesty and bracing wine with a faint integration of flavors, featuring hints of cherry, raspberry, and elegant pepper on the nose and palate. The wine's light body and easy-drinking nature make it an excellent selection for those expecting a mellow and enjoyable glass.

Zugibe Vineyards Cabernet Franc 2015 receives mixed reviews. Some appreciate its zesty, light body with cherry, raspberry, and pepper notes, while others find it overpowering and bitter. It's considered easy-drinking by some, yet disappointing by others who prefer other Finger Lakes options.
Displaying a deep garnet hue, the Zugibe Vineyards Cabernet Franc opens with an aromatic bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, crushed violets, and a hint of green bell pepper, indicative of its varietal purity. The palate is medium-bodied, showcasing a harmonious interplay of red plum and dark cherry flavors, underpinned by a subtle minerality. Silky tannins and a vibrant acidity provide structure, leading to a lingering finish with whispers of cedar and a touch of graphite. This wine exemplifies the elegance and finesse characteristic of Finger Lakes Cabernet Franc, making it a compelling choice for both connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike.
