Winemaker’s Notes:
This Austrian bred grape produces a medium bodied wine with good acidity, soft tannins and a distinctive red colour. Flavours include black pepper, spice and currants.

Matches well with grilled meats, whire meats, roast meats, pork and pizza.

This Austrian grape is well suited to Lake Erie North Shore and our climate.

Cabernet Franc

Winemaker’s Notes:
Great tannins, structure and fruit on this Classic Erie Shore Vintage. Wonderful with grilled or roasted red meats, chicken, turkey (dark meat) vegetables, pizza, and blue cheese.

This Bordeaux variety is particularly well suited to the Essex County climate, growing season and soils. The result is a full flavoured red wine that matches nicely with grilled or roasted red meats, chicken, turkey, grilled vegetables, hard and blue cheeses.

Winemaker’s Notes:
We’re thrilled to have our newest, and very popular new Summer Sun Cabernet now available. Summer Sun is a chilled red wine made of 100% Cabernet Franc, made with only minimal skin contact. The result is a delicate salmon coloured wine with a vibrant citrus nose with pronounced lime, fresh grapefruit with a dusting of sugar on the palate. It is matched with grilled vegetables, cold cuts, cheese, sole, oyster, snapper, salmon, quiche, burgers, ribs and hot spicy foods.
