Soft mouth feel, on the dry side. Notes of cherry. Medium acidity, smooth. Quite tannic. Per the vineyard, this vintage has emerged as a sleek sports car with controlled power and smooth lines. I don't know about that but it is a decent wine at a very competitive price point, albeit not very memorable.

Anniversary wine in Banff. This Ontario Cab Franc is slightly vegetal in both nose and palate with hints of violet and dark fruit. Medium bodied with a soft mouth feel and medium acidity. Paired with Bison Short Rid and Tenderloin with celeriac puree and duck fat potatoes.
