Some years they might make one-off wines; and in many years, fruit that is part of a long-standing relationship will become a standard of the range. They own no winery and only supply a few pieces of \u201ckit\u201d to make the wines \u2013 barrels, for example, as necessary.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-91078c6\" data-id=\"91078c6\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8cff36d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8cff36d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Part of this involves working with great winemakers such as Pete Bartle in Central; and getting to re-visit places from earlier in his career \u2013 like the Howell vineyard in Bridge Pa.

A nudge of oaky barrel perfumes the mid palate, but a layer of spicy resinous lingers with tobacco, moss and bark typifying the varietal. A supple mouth-filling texture, with heaps of complexity and a graceful length to the finish. Not too many of these single-variety Cab Francs around, and this one has the structure and balance to go the distance.
