I like British Columbian Cabernet Franc. But I really, really like BC Cab Franc when winemakers don’t try and trick it up with heavy oak and extraction, but rather just let it be its brambly, characterful, juicy, savory self. The Similkameen Valley’s family owned Eau Vivre Winery & Vineyards gets it, so I highly recommend you get this. Perfumed cassis and dusty raspberry aromas entice into juicy black raspberry, prune plum and cherry notes. Fine grained tannins and black pepper spice are woven throughout the lively palate.Lovely fruit from front to finish, and a beautiful example of letting the grape and place do the talking.
