Wine in Niagara Peninsula

In ancient Hebrew, Tzafona means northward, and true to its name it captures the cold and pure essence of Canada's flagship appellation, the Niagra peninsula. Tzafona's Vidal Icewine has intense aromas of honey, apricot, and peaches with a perfect balance of acidity and texture on the palate.

Medium minus nose shows black plum, baking spice, roses. Palate gives soft layers of dark fruit, cedar, blackberry, herbs like sage, pretty presentation with some grip, medium plus tannins, medium acidity, medium complexity and finish. Very solid and a total unknown given the region.

We dedicate this delightful Rosé to Madame Andrée Bosc – wife, mother and winery matriarch. We wanted to make a wine with as much joie de vivre as Madame. The vibrant pink certainly makes a statement. We were able to extract this colour by using only fully ripe grapes and by allowing an overnight cold soak to bleed out the colour from the skins. This is the old school way to make a crisp, dry Rosé. On the nose the aromas will remind you of fresh strawberries and cranberries. On the palate it is fresh and lively.

Intense aromas of ripe plum, blackberries, cedar, and black tea. On the palate, it is rich with flavours of blueberries, black cherry, pepper spice and lingering dark chocolate.

This medium-bodied and fruit forward Merlot showcases flavours of ripe red fruits, cedar and oak. The dry finish has lingering notes of red currant, pomegranate and spice. Aged for 12 months in 70% French oak and 30% American oak barrels with full malolactic fermentation. Pair with grilled medium-rare steaks, burgers topped with blue cheese, portobello mushroom stew, prime rib, beef tenderloin, or 2 year old cheddar.
