Merlot and Cabernet Franc aged in French barrique
A bit of a unicorn wine. Mildly floral nose with hint of sage. On the palate, strawberry fruit up front giving way to voluptuous mirabelle plum midpalate with a deliciously complex finish accented by vanilla and marzipan. Very refined and elegant character. Unlike any other Rosé that I've ever had. Wears its 14.5% abv very well without a trace of heat. The extremely deft hand of Graeme MacDonald is evident in the winemaking here.
Paired with an incredibly delicious preparation of salmon en papillote with wild rice and baby asparagus
