Growing Conditions

Sourced from select sustainably farmed Niagara Peninsula vineyards. Viticultural practices included vertical shoot positioning, shoot thinning, cluster thinning, hand leaf removal and hand harvest.

Winemaking

The Grower’s Blend series was created to showcase the exceptional fruit coming from various vineyards throughout the Niagara Peninsula. The 2012 Grower’s Blend Cabernet Franc is a perfect example of this. The nose is rich with black licorice, dark fruit and cigar box aromas. On the palate, herbaceous notes of oregano are married with notes of blueberry and a hint of oak.

Food Pairing

With its balanced tannins and lively acidity, this wine that will pair beautifully with with lamb chops, pasta with Bolognese or Veal parmigiana.
