A bold and expressive red, the Cabernet Franc bursts with aromas of black cherry, spice, and cracked pepper, accented by delicate hints of violet. 



Tasting Notes: A bold and expressive red, the Cabernet Franc bursts with aromas of black cherry, spice, and cracked pepper, accented by delicate hints of violet. The palate is rich and structured, showcasing firm tannins and layers of plum, anise, and earthy undertones that lead to a long, savoury finish.

Farm Notes: All hand picked estate fruit sitting on the East side of Osoyoos Lake with sunny South West exposures and amazing terroir. Thoughtfully farmed with a commitment to sustainability.

Maker Notes: 100% Cabernet Franc. Berries were destemmed and the skins gently broken, followed by pump-overs to achieve a gentle extraction of flavour and colour.

Food Pairing Notes: Despite its bold character, the wine’s bright acidity and refined tannin structure make it a versatile partner at the table. Pair it with hearty dishes such as penne with Italian sausage, risotto-stuffed bell peppers, or sage-roasted chicken with root vegetables. For a Portuguese touch, try grilled pork tenderloin with piri-piri seasoning or Bifanas (Portuguese marinated pork sandwiches), whose savoury spices and rich flavours beautifully complement the wine's dark fruit, pepper, and earthy notes.
