2021 Somnium Estate Cabernet Franc Somnium
Elegant and deep, this wine has beautiful blue-fruited aromatics and supple,
suede-like tannins. The nose beckons with dark plum and rocky minerality,
opening into layers of sun-dried blueberries, dark chocolate, espresso and dried
herbs. The estate’s volcanic soils thrum as a mineral baseline, grounding the
high-toned fruit and coffee-infused structure. Hints of leather and graphite lead
into a savory finish of espresso and blue-purple fruit that seems to go on forever.
