Description

From first contact with this new vintage, the Cabernet Franc lets you know that you’ve not seen its like before. Looking back to the initial Ontario pursuit of this ancient grape variety, we could only have dreamed of this remarkable expression of grape and guile. We were required to forge on undeterred and be both sly and cunning. We foresaw the glorious end game; Cabernet Franc has the pedigree and it just needed regional persistence plus the appropriate insight. Inspiration for Ontario excellence in this variety flows from the venerable Loire River region. This 2023 vintage demonstrates an enviable depth and complexity. A rich array of summer field berries spiked by a subtle note of wooden spice box boldly announces the arrival of this new titan. On the palate the appeal is broad and lingering. The beautifully resolved tannin structure and lively acidity easily carry the focused, groaning weight of fruit. Cabernet Franc has arrived.
