TASTING NOTE: A blend of Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc and Gamay. Look for myriad aromas of strawberries, watermelon and grapefruit with a squirt of apple and lemon. It's relatively dry on the palate with ripe red fruits and good acidity. Nice summer quaffer. Score - 87 (Rick VanSickle, winesinniagara.com, May 10, 2017) |
