Ray Jordan’s review
Domaine Naturaliste Le Naturaliste Cabernet Franc 2021 ($92)
Dukes introduced this substantial statement of Cabernet Franc a few years ago. This is a Cab Franc with power and concentrated intensity. It starts with an aromatic combination of red fruits and liqueur chocolate and cherry. The palate is firmly structured with firm tannins and a liberal amount of oak supporting an intense fruit. On the finish, a trace of regional ironstone and cracked seashell adds the final flourish. Will handle extended cellaring.
Score: 95/100
Cellar: 15 years
