Chateau Chantal winery Visit (Old Mission Peninsula, Michigan) (Old Mission Peninsula, Michigan): Tasted at the winery. 350 cases made. They fermented cherries to 8.5% alcohol and then added a cherry eau de vie which they distilled to bring the alcohol level to 19%. This is made in a port style. Extremely cherry tasting but not overly sweet. The alcohol kept a good balance. No score.
