| TASTING NOTE: The majority of this Cabernet Franc Icewine (80%) was aged in stainless steel and the remainder aged in older French oak. This approach provides the framework to allow the opulence of the strawberry and cherry notes to shine through while also presenting a succulent mouthfeel and depth. A wine for foie gras, dark chocolate cake or plum cobbler. |
