Reviews and Ratings

Camelia Bucur rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

A great Onatrio wine to try out. Oaky Cabernet Franc with aromas of dark fruits and vanilla. Easy drinking wine with medium finish of tabacco and spice. Enjoyable with grilled meats.
Dale Camroux-Peacock rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

dark fruit..yes please, oaky vanilla...yes please, nothing in the green spectrum. This Cabernet Franc from Featherstone Estate Winery is a staple on our restaurant wine list. It is approachable, affordable and a prime example of what Niagara is doing extremely well. The winery and owners are charming and a must stop when visiting the region.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
