Fogarty has a good track record with this bottling. The ’04 certainly is ripe and soft, with rich, jammy cherry, red currant, raspberry, licorice and mocha flavors. With very high (15.5%) alcohol, it could have a firmer structure, but it’s lip-smackingly good.——S.H.(7/1/2008)—— 89

Fogarty has a great track record with Cabernet, including Cab Franc, and this is an interesting, complex wine. It’s dry and tannic. There’s a gamy, leathery note to the blackberry and coffee fruit that finishes with great length. Despite the tannins, it doesn’t seem like an ager, so drink up. ——S.H.(5/1/2006)—— 90

It takes an incredibly good vineyard to produce a Cab Franc this good. This lovely wine has lush blackberry flavors with nuances of espresso and sweet oregano. It’s quite tannic, leaving behind a dusty astringency. ——S.H.(11/15/2004)—— 91
