2020 Cave Spring Cabernet Franc Estate

Made for slow-braised lamb shoulder, infused with rosemary and garlic, this 2020 Cave Spring Cabernet Franc Estate is a rich tapestry of dark fruit and earthy spice. From Niagara's limestone soils, its elegant structure whispers of blackberry and plum, hinting at the mineral core that anchors its refined finish. This is Ontario Cab Franc finding its voice, a thoughtful companion to hearty meals.
