CAVE SPRING ESTATE CABERNET FRANC 750 ml

Description

Discover the distinctive allure of Cave Spring Estate Cabernet Franc, crafted from grapes nurtured in the Cave Spring Vineyard on the Beamsville Bench. This prime spot along the Niagara Escarpment features a gently sloping terrace overlooking Lake Ontario, where limestone-clay soils, higher elevation, and cooling onshore breezes create a perfect haven for Cabernet Franc. The result captures a robust profile infused with a spicy, mint-berry essence that's truly one-of-a-kind to this hillside location.

Gaze at its medium ruby hue, a visual promise of depth waiting to unfold. Inhale deeply to encounter a layered bouquet blending cherry-menthol freshness with cedar earthiness, hints of graphite sharpness, black licorice sweetness, and subtle undertones of forest floor and eucalyptus. Each sniff reveals new dimensions from this Ontario gem.

On the palate, this medium-bodied red greets with firm, fine-grained tannins paired alongside macerating cherry fruit. As it evolves, the structure softens and expands, weaving in rich cassis and black raspberry notes that saturate the mid-palate. The lingering finish builds elegantly, layering berry compote richness with intriguing blacktop minerality, charcoal smokiness, and a refreshing peppermint lift.

From Canada's Ontario region, this 750 ml bottle at 13.50% ABV and a crisp sweetness level of 01 delivers an authentic expression of its Beamsville Bench roots. Whether savoring solo on a quiet evening or sharing at a gathering, Cave Spring Estate Cabernet Franc invites you to explore its unique character. Elevate your collection with this robust red that embodies the escarpment's singular terroir-driven charm.

Let the breezes of Lake Ontario and the escarpment's ancient soils speak through every sip, making this Cabernet Franc a standout choice for those seeking wines with genuine site-specific vibrancy.
