Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
The grapes used to make our single vineyard Cabernet Franc were planted in 2003. The vines were meticulously managed to ensure optimal quality and a timely harvest. The wines produced are showing exceptional quality and depth of flavours and texture that reflect the glacial soil of River Stone on which they were grown.

A fine solid wine with good aromatics. Will benefit greatly with aging. Looking forward to trying it again next year.

This was my first taste of this wine and it was excellant. I plan to cellar some for a couple of years and then enjoy it all over again.
