Domaine Des Ouches Igoranda Cabernet Franc Bourgueil 2009, Ac

I love Cabernet Franc! Especially from Loire. I think this grape shows it's best in Loire valley.
Dark cherry color, bright, opaque.
On the nose fresh berries, little bit of iron, currant.
On the palate dry, medium body, firm tannins. Flavours are pretty much repeating from the nose- black berries, cherries, little bit of mineral notes, black pepper.
Finish is long with hint of tobacco.
Loved this wine, it's very good now, but I wonder how it will be in a couple of years?
