Peller Estates Private Reserve Cabernet Franc 2011
Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaThe Reserve franc is a mix of estate and purchased fruit from the Four Mile Creek appellation. It spends about a year in American and French oak adding smoke and spice to its cedar-y, red fruit nose. The palate is a peppery mix of currants, tobacco and black tea. The finish is long, warm, spicy and persistent if a little bit skinny. Solid and would be a fine match with steak frites.Tasted: 06 April 2014Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:ON | $22.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
