The 2006 Paleo Rosso (Cabernet Franc) bursts from the glass with an exciting array of violets, minerals, dark cherries, grilled herbs and French oak. This is a sensual, layered Paleo endowed with tons of elegance and class. The refined finish and silky tannins are those of a first-rate wine. Today the oak is a bit pronounced, but another year or two in bottle should help the wine come together.
Plum and sweet herb on the nose leads to ripe fruit and loads of new wood on the full-bodied palate. Chewy, turning to tobacco and cedar. Should come together in bottle very nicely. Cabernet Sauvignon.
