In a cooler vintage, we are still able to get optimal ripeness on the reds in Ontario, luckily the weather held out and we were able to keep this Cabernet Sauvignon on the vine as long as possible to develop good phenolic ripeness. This wine was fermented on skins and aged in a combination of new and neutral oak to complement its fruit profile.
Winemaker's Pairing Suggestion: This would be great with flank steak, or dark chocolate.
