Essex Wine Review

Winemaker’s Notes:
This wine has a pronounced fruity bouquet and becomes rounder and finer with aging. The nose has expressions of black cherries with a surprise black pepper finish. High complexity, well balanced, ripe and soft tannins. This Zweigelt is great by itself or enjoy with beef and barbecues.

Winemaker’s Notes:
Pelee Island Monarch Red is a fun and lively red wine with ripe and jammy fruit flavours. A welcoming aroma of cherry and violets give way to a balanced finish with robust tannins. This wine is great accompaniment to grilled red meats and full flavoured cheeses.

Winemaker’s Notes:
If you have liked our Duet in the past, you are going to love the new one! As in the past, it is still 85% Zweigelt, and 15% Cabernet Franc. It has wonderful smoothness, good tannins, and spiciness. Matched with grilled meats, white meats, roast meats, pork and pizza.

RELEASED (January 2009)

Winemaker Notes:
Excellent, smooth, medium bodied wine, softly cellared in our French oak barrels. Lovely finish. A blend of 85% Zweigelt and 15% Cabernet Franc, giving black pepper and current flavours. Zweigelt grows wonderfully here at the Erie Shore. It is an early season blue vinifera. Matched with grilled meats, white meats, roast meats, pork and pizza.
