Pricing & Stock Information

Reviews and Ratings

Cuddy By Tawse 2015 Cabernet Merlot is so seductive with plushy plum, mocha and savoury herb aromas on the nose. A lush blackberry flavoured, smoky, spicy Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot red wine blend aged in 18 months in French oak barrels. Tannins are firm and I would give this this youthful red beauty another year in cellar to begin to show its best. Jim Cuddy, lead singer and guitarist of the Canadian band Blue Rodeo, has partnered with Niagara’s Tawse Winery to create a new wine brand, Cuddy by Tawse. Cuddy is one of the country’s most iconic musicians: over the past thirty years Blue Rodeo has sold more than four million records, released 14 albums and won eleven JUNO awards. - Community Wine Reviews
