June 4, 2023 - This was great. Red fruited, hints of purple fruit like plum. Earth, hints of bell pepper now and then, and kept changing over the couple hours it was open. Not sure how this one could have been in a better spot. Classic Niagara Cab Franc.

September 26, 2016 - Just had at restaurant in Montreal by the glass. Was open since yesterday and just recorked the night before. The day of oxygen probably helped it as it seemed a little more integrated than some of the earlier comments. Still a big nose but oak balanced with fruit. If you like grip, it's still got it but tannins in check.

June 8, 2016 - slightly sweet, very strong flavour and deep colour, and too much oak. Best quality is the very fruity aroma

May 25, 2016 - Best served a little cold. Tastes deliciously fruity, and fresh like an Ontario morning. No burn. Goes down light. No aftertaste. Starts out plumpy... but ends fresh and light. Definitely chuggable. Beauty.
