2015 Jacob Franklin Mon Chou Red Bordeaux 750ML

Dave's Tasting Notes: Bold and Textured

The 2015 Jacob Franklin Mon Chou Red offers a plush expression of Napa Valley Bordeaux-style blending. Deep garnet in the glass, the wine opens with aromas of ripe black cherry, graphite, and warm spice. On the palate, dense layers of blackcurrant, mocha, and vanilla glide over structured tannins and subtle oak. A touch of earthiness adds depth, while the finish is long, dry, and seasoned with tobacco and toasted cedar. Decanting enhances its expressive fruit and plush mouthfeel, making it a cellar-worthy standout.
