S3 R18-What's in Renée's Glass?

Glorious Cabernet Franc!!! Two very different expressions of Renée's favorite grape! A 2022 Tuffe Château du Hureau [https://www.polanerselections.com/producers/hureau/] from Saumur-Champigny, Loire, France and a 2020 Aurora Vin du Montagne [https://aurorawinery.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoop00ysO2XBD40tbcZYVqXkwr1qTeKXpHo6RiX-gNk0z8RaWTlA] from the village of Aoura in Lebanon! Cheers to podcast friend, Andrew Stover [https://www.instagram.com/wineanddragons/] for these treats!

S3 R17-What's in Renée's Glass?

A little age, a little leg, some jewel tones, a perfect blend of acid and whiskey, This woman is ready for a night out! The 2020 One Woman Cabernet Franc [https://www.onewomanwines.com] from the North Fork of Long Island!

S3 E19-Deepish Dive Into Cabernet Franc

Five wines. Four Vintages. Three Countries. Two Continents. One grape. Behold the "voluptuous beast" that is Cabernet Franc. Join us as we linger over a 2022 Catherine et Pierre Breton Les Beaux Monts Chinon [https://domainebreton.net/en/collections/vins-rouges], a 2012 Clos Rougeard Saumur-Champigny Le Bourg [https://www.clos-rougeard.com/en/#cuvees], a 2022 Two Wolves Estate Vineyard Cabernet Franc [https://twowolveswine.com/products/2022-cabernet-franc], a 2023 Glen Manor Vineyards Cabernet Franc [https://glenmanorvineyards.com], and a 2020 Le Macchiole Paleo Rosso [https://www.lemacchiole.it/en/vini/paleorosso.html?anno=2020#dettaglio-vino-intro]. Whether you're pairing with an aged gouda, pepper salami or a good therapy session, you're gonna love this grape! Postscript: Wow, did those wines evolve in the glass! We kept tasting after the mics were turned off, and they were all amazing and different an hour later. Cheers to our friends Leslie and Jenn for tasting with us, and to Jimi for being our chef on the night! To Cassie Gonce at Glen Manor for the tasting notes, Ray Isle for the Breton recommendation, and vicariously for the Le Macchiole Paleo Rosso recommendation, to Alecia Moore and the Two Wolves Tribe for the Charly Foucault and Clos Rougeard story.
