Reviews and Ratings

Rosewood Shoulders of Giants is a medium-bodied, dry Cabernet Franc from the Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, with a sleek weight and elegant profile, best served at room temperature. Winemaker Rosewood sources grapes from old vines in the Renaceau Vineyard, whole-cluster ferments with ambient yeast, and ages the wine 30 months in French oak, producing dark fruit and smoked herb flavours with a polished, layered palate. At 10% alcohol, it has moderate aging potential through 2028, developing further subtlety while remaining fresh. Pair it with bison burgers to highlight its earthy, dark fruit character, or lamb kebabs to complement its smoky herbal notes. This wine showcases Ontario Cabernet Franc with finesse, structure, and restrained elegance. - Community Wine Review

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

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.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
