"The 2019 Cabernet Franc Force De La Nature comes all from Clone 1 and is pure perfection in this reviewer’s opinion. Offering a Cheval Blanc-like nose of red and black currants, flowers, leather, sandalwood, and violets, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, flawless balance, silky tannins, and just a great finish. It’s one of those wines where nothing is out of place, and it brings incredible intensity paired with a hard to describe level of finesse and elegance."

"The 2019 Cabernet Franc Force de la Nature is 100% Franc from Cœur de Vallée. The aromatic intensity of Franc in this gravelly soils is so alluring. Crushed raspberry, mint, spicecake, dried flowers and mocha are all laced together in the captivating bouquet. Beams of tannin add to a feeling of drive as this resonant, textured Franc continues to open in the glass. This is a stunning wine by any measure."
