Product Description:

The nose exhibits abundant cassis, blackberry and black cherry aromas alongside notes of mint, clove and smoke. The palate is full in body, bursting with bright cherry and ripe plum flavours, all the while restrained by firm, well-integrated tannins and cedary complexity. Fresh, juicy and well-rounded throughout, it finishes with persistent dark berry fruit along with hints of thyme and coffee. This wine originates from selected parcels of our vineyards located on the benchlands of the Niagara Escarpment. Along these gentle slopes overlooking Lake Ontario, limestone-clay soils, elevation and moderating on-shore breezes combine to capture the distinctive mint-berry character typical of Cabernet Franc in our terroir. Serving Suggestions: Grilled steaks, hearty beef stews, Shepherd’s pie, pasta with Bolognese sauce, pork chops with herbs & olives, coq au vin, roasted game birds
