2017 – L’esprit de NoVa – 40% cab franc and I have no idea what the rest is but it’s damn good.
Also tried the 2016 which is beyond fabulous.
Kelly likes the ‘17 better
The people here are amazingly nice
2013 William’s gap – $65 – Bordeaux style w deeper tannins, complex. A little heavy
2017 Piedmont Station – cab Sauvignon forward. Kelly really loved this.
2017 Left Bank – 40% cab franc – off menu. Very good. Per Kelly, ‘complex w notable tannins. Cranberry. Definitely a Bordeaux.’ Nose is lovely. I like the L’esprit better
2017 Cinq 8 – again, another delicious red but a bit heavy. Kelly liked it. Thought it was a little spicy and a little lighter.
