Fryers Cove Grenache/Cinsault

This medium-bodied wine is bright and exuberant in color with light violet hues. It is packed with aromas of wild raspberry and a hint of clove spice. It boasts smooth tannins with a balanced acidity, giving it a seductive round finish. This wine will pair well with game or a meaty-style fish such as a tuna steak. Serve lightly chilled if paired with spicy foods (750 mL and 12.5% alcohol content)

 The grapes were harvested separately during the early morning hours to retain their purity and freshness. The fruit was fermented in open-top tanks with gentle pump-overs 3 times each day to extract color, flavor and supple tannins to create a harmonious wine with character and finesse.

Our Grenache and Cinsault vineyards average around 20 years old and are planted close to the bracing, cold Atlantic. The cooling air that, with careful viticulture, can promotes good health in the vineyards. The rugged west coast serves the cool temperatures in the period leading up to harvest creating ideal conditions for ripening; a textbook environment for an attractive expression of terroir.
