title: Jason-Stephens 2012 Estate Cabernet Franc (Santa Clara Valley)
description: Extreme pepper elements, from peppercorn to bell pepper, carry through this entire experience. The nose also shows red berries, while the palate offers barely ripe strawberry notes. Fans of the peppery style, which often benefits from a slight chill, will be enthused. Those who hate pyrazines should stay away.
variety: Cabernet Franc
