Fogolar Wines 2021 Oppenlaender Vineyard Cabernet Franc

$29.95

This single-vineyard Cabernet Franc showcases the unique terroir of the Oppenlander Vineyard, situated in Niagara-on-the-Lake’s Four Mile Creek sub-appellation. An elegant nose of cherry compote, toast, and a hint of elderflower. Smooth with fine tannins on the palate and a gentle, flavourful finish.

Winemaking Notes:

Fruit from the Oppenlaender vineyard was machine-picked and optically sorted before being whole fermented berry for 28 days, then pressed. Aged in used French & American oak for 18 months before being filtered and bottled.

We are now shipping to Ontario and Quebec. Please view our shipping rates.

Food Pairing:

Lorem ipsum dolorem sit amet sic luceat lux

Remember that pyrazine characteristic? The pyrazines that give the Cabernet Franc its herby and peppery earthiness make it a perfect wine choice for pairing with vegetable-based dishes like a roasted or grilled eggplant dish, tomatoes stuffed with basil, and Brussels sprouts gratin. The earthiness and herb-like taste of the Cabernet Franc will accentuate and bring out the flavours of those vegetables. You might even choose a Cab Franc for meals that aren’t entirely vegetarian but still serve it whenever you want to accentuate the taste and flavour of the roasted or grilled vegetable dishes you’ve included.
