red wine
(Port style)
Description
A fortified red wine made from the Frontenac Noir grape, offering a warm and ample palate. It unfolds aromas of lightly cooked red and black fruits, blending plum, cherry, stewed strawberry, blackcurrant and fig.
Its aromatic richness is supported by a discreet touch of toasted oak, which brings depth and structure. Despite its generosity, the wine retains a lovely suppleness and a surprising drinkability for a wine of this style.

Flavours of black and red fruits linger at length, carried by a light woody note and a warm, perfectly balanced finish.
Pairings and serving
This wine is at its best at the end of a meal. It pairs particularly well with flavourful cheeses, dark chocolate and desserts made with nuts, candied fruit or vanilla.
Serve between 12 and 15 °C.
