Tasting note
Earthy yet fruity Canadian Merlot, loaded with cherries and red plums and heady with tobacco, cocoa, spice and a wisp of smoke.
Viticulture
Machine harvested from long-standing growers for Trius Winery, located within the VQA Niagara Peninsula appellation.
Vinification
Traditional skin contact, subtle French and American oak integration, and full malolactic fermentation, produce a wine of elegant fruit-forward style.
Food Match
Delicous pairing with beef wraps; grilled steaks and garlic mashed potatoes; mild Canadian cheddar with whole grain bread; prime rib on focaccia; gourmet burgers topped with grilled mushrooms; meat pies.
