Bordertown Cabernet Franc Rosé 2018

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBordertown has a wealth of cabernet franc vines, enabling them to divert a few to a rosé that winemaker Daniel Bontorin (also of Seven Directions) says is made in the classic French Provence style. The colour is Provençal pink, the aromas melon and strawberries that spill across the palate. The texture is not quite Provençal, but then again, neither is the price. The finish, however, is crisp and dry, making it easy to drain the bottle quickly. A great match could be rice dishes, spot prawns, goat cheese, summer style salads, or mussels.Tasted: 05 May 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
