Red Newt Cellars 2010 Glacier Ridge Vineyards Cabernet Franc

Price $39

Bold and densely concentrated, this fantastic single-vineyard Cabernet Franc is laden with ripe black fruit, yet it’s balanced by hints of cracked pepper, fresh herb and a gorgeous note of violet- and rose-petal spray.

Cellar Selection

Price $52

Hints of thyme, sage, violet and coffee are just a handful of the nuances that color this composed Bordeaux-style Blend. Brisk acidity balances the bold, ripe fruit, leading to a fresh, herbaceous finish with penetrating tannins. Drink now over a long evening, or better yet, cellar it for 3–5 years to let all of the components come together. — A.I. (11/1/2012)
