"Explosively aromatic and spicy, this is a juicy Cabernet Franc, the likes of which we have not encountered before. Lilacs, violets and peppery spice whirl with a dervish zeal up and down the body of the wine. The palate buzzes with rousing energy, while caressing you with gentle fruit on a spiderweb of almost imperceptible tannins. A deep violet wine that tastes like a vinous rosé, this is an enticing summer charmer - from which, at least in our experience, it is impossible to drink only a glass or two. We've come to believe rosé is a feeling, not a colour." - Importer

The great thing about Canadian Cabernet Franc is how fresh tasting it is. Sourced from premium vineyards in the Niagara Peninsula, the Fielding Estate Cab Franc has layers and layers of herbal and savoury notes balanced with ripe dark fruit. Pair this wine with pork tenderloin and braised beef.

"The Cuvée Metis Rouge is a meditation on a lovely concept for our times. It alludes to the combination of unlikely compatriots creating something unexpectedly wonderful. A blending of Pinot, Cab Franc and Gamay, juxtaposing extreme drinkability, with subtlety, complexity, and densely layered flavour. Simultaneously spicy and bright, meaty and floral, with depth and freshness. A conflict free expression of contradictions and differences, bringing something wholly unexpected and wonderful to the forefront. Gorgeous!"

This wine comes from their vineyard in the Similkameen Valley, the most northern extremity of the arid desert that stretches up from Washington. Elevation is a little higher here which provides strong diurnal temperature swings. The soils are mostly granite which tends to offer moderate nutrient availability. Aaron does not till and encourages beneficial cover crops to bring life back into the soil. Whole clusters of Syrah were added to Qvevri (Georgian style clay pots). Riesling juice was pressed directly over-top to encourage carbonic maceration. After intracellular fermentation is finished the wine is pressed off back into Qvevri as well as neutral barrels. A small amount of whole berry Riesling was also co-fermented with Syrah as an experiment. After six months on lees the wine is bottled with 15ppm of sulphur. pH 3.55, TA 6.8 g/L - Juice Imports
