Simply delicious!! Rich and velvety...intense flavours of creamy raspberry/strawberry/rhubarb jam mixed with other candied fruit. Complexe and luscious...always a real treat for all. 2012 was an awesome vintage and it shows in this ready to drink beauty!

A nice finish to a meal. Sometimes interesting to get the cab franc instead of the standard ice wine. Would have liked a bit more acidity here. It felt a bit heavier than I liked. I prefer the sparkling variety but this is good too.

Drank this after an '86 Chateau Talbot and an '01 Hundred Acre both of which were fantastic wines. This ones showed a bit more one dimensional in comparison. Nice strawberry fruit flavors and a good touch of sweet. No major evolution for the wine. Might also have been a glass thing - was drinking out of the same red glasses we'd used for the others (rinsed out) and I think this wine always shows better in a smaller glass. Enjoyable, but it limits more obvious in this tasting.

Winorama Canadiana! (Niagara on the Lake): Really lovely wine. As with most of the Cabernet Francs we had there was lots of strawberry flavor, some cherry. It's not particularly complex, but there is a wonderful sweetness to it.
