January 4, 2024 - This is a 10 year old Cabernet Franc from a mediocre vintage (that saw a huge crop, largest on record to that point for Ontario). Sadly, not even Queylus' good name and winemaking team can save what this has become: liquid bell pepper. And that's being kind. Fruit is long gone. Even at the times when the green pepper subsides, there is very little to be excited about. The best thing I can say here, is that oak was not a factor in my tasting - it did not show up. Which was a saving grace for this wine.

March 29, 2018 - I almost mistook this for Cab Sav, but the pepper and cedar are dialled up a notch. Lovely ripe glossy red and black fruits that give this a silkiness that is balanced by the tannin and peppery finish. Not the juicy dreams of the Loire, but something nicely different and full of pleasure.
