Such a lovely icewine made from Cabernet Franc grapes. Aromas of ripe blackberries. This wine is kosher, mevushal and vegan-friendly. Pair with hard cheeses.

Cabernet Franc Red Icewine food pairings: raspberry and dark chocolate torte, roasted nuts, berry desserts with sweetened whipping cream.

Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

A beautiful celebration of icewine, this one made with Cabernet Franc. Aromas of strawbery and raspberry, along with a touch of honey. Full bodied, smooth, and rounded with luscious, jammy red fruit on the palate along with honey flavours and a slight herbal hint. Enjoy with chocolate and raspberry desserts.
