Deep purple garnet in colour, with a warm aromatic bouquet of ripe black cherry and black currant fruit, mingling with spice box, cedar chest, toasty oak, and vanilla notes. A full-bodied red wine with firm drying tannins, fresh acidity to brighten the fruit flavours, and a touch of mid-palate ripe fruit sweetness. Flavours of juicy black currant and black cherry are complemented by notes of spice, vanilla, and toasty oak. Lovely notes of black tea, black currant, Chai spice, oak, and vanilla linger on the extra-dry finish.

WINE MAKING
A classic blend of 49% Merlot, 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Cabernet Franc, all harvested from the vineyards within the Niagara Peninsula. The individual wines were aged for 12 months in (60%) French and (40%) American oak barrels, before the final assemblage was created. (30% of the barrels were new oak) A full malolactic fermentation was completed in barrel.
