Frontenac

Reserve the next vintage

This medium-bodied 2007 vintage has a very dark and dense ruby red colour with aromas of maraschino cherry, black pepper and coffee bean that are followed by secondary scents of smoky cedar and spice.

At the core, we are pleasantly rewarded with smooth espresso-like bittersweet consistency and well-integrated tannins which are beautifully balanced on the long finish.

This fabulous Frontenac will be drinkable until 2014.

Reviews
"Nose: Quite restrained on the nose with just a hint of fruit and a touch of elegant woodiness. Palate:Very good sweet, jammy mostly cherry fruit with just a hint of pine and finishing with a touch of vanilla. Comments: An enjoyable, full flavoured red that tastes halfway between Bordeaux and California."
