| NEW in Vintages. Deep intense purple-garnet-red in colour, this Bordeaux-inspired blend of 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot, and 15% Cabernet Franc has fairly intense, refined, ripe Damson plum fruit on the nose with some faintly spicy, gently toasty, cassis notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, very nicely textured, ripe, Damson plum and crancherry-cassis fruit followed up by a lingering, very bright, gently cedary finish. Perfect with grilled red meat. Aged for 12 months in 60% French and 40% American oak barrels (25% new oak; 75% older oak) with full malolactic, it has 13% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number 23411101L5 on the lower part of the glass bottle. |

| TASTING NOTE: A blend of Cabernets Franc and Sauvignon with Merlot, this wine offers lovely blackcurrant, blackberry, plum and oak along with touches of tobacco, black tea, and baking spice. Another outstanding wine from a leading light of the Niagara scene. |
