Tag: Cabernet Franc

What are the characteristics of Cabernet Franc?

It is loved for aromas of violets, tobacco and green pepper and deep expressive flavours of tobacco, dark spice while maintaining supple tannins and dark berry flavours.

@township7 Riesling 2023 Paired with Baked Steelhe @township7 Riesling 2023 Paired with Baked Steelhead Trout 🐟 From Fool’s Gold Vineyard in North Oliver, this 100% Riesling is all about precision and purity. Fermented בעיקר in concrete (with a touch of stainless), it delivers both fresh aromatics and subtle texture. 🍏 Apple blossom, stone fruit 🍋 Key lime, Meyer lemon 🍍 Golden apple, hints of pineapple & apricot Dry, Trocken-style, with an almost electric, lightly effervescent feel on the palate. Bright acidity drives a clean, mineral finish. A perfect match for steelhead — the acidity cuts through the richness beautifully. Alc. 12.8% | pH 3.15 | TA 7.1 | RS 4.9 91 Points #BCWine #BCRiesling #OkanaganWine #Township7 #DrinkLocalBC #WinePairing #SeafoodPairing #WineLovers #Riesling #KelownaWine #OkanaganLife #BCWineTrends

@quailsgate Trio 🍷🌿 | Spring Pairings Done Right T @quailsgate Trio 🍷🌿 | Spring Pairings Done Right Three fresh releases, three spot-on food matches: this is Okanagan spring in a glass. Quail’s Gate Rosé 2025 🍓 Pairing: Strawberry Rose Tart Bright, juicy and vibrant, with red berries and citrus lift — a natural with sweet-tart desserts. Quail’s Gate Chenin Blanc 2025 🍅 Pairing: Heirloom Tomato Salad Crisp, textured, and quietly complex. The acidity and subtle richness play beautifully with ripe tomatoes and fresh herbs. Quail’s Gate Heirloom White 2025 🍋 Pairing: Meyer Lemon & Thyme Pasta Zesty, aromatic, and refreshing — perfect with citrus-driven dishes and light savoury flavours. Simple idea, well executed: match fresh BC wines with fresh, seasonal food. 👍 #BCWine #OkanaganWine #QuailsGate #BCWinetrends #DrinkLocalBC #WinePairing #RoséAllDay #CheninBlanc #SpringWines #KelownaWine #WineLovers #ExploreBCWine 🍷

Four bottles. One island identity. 🌿 @BlueGrouse Four bottles. One island identity. 🌿 @BlueGrouse continues to show why Vancouver Island deserves a serious place in the BC wine conversation. This lineup captures it perfectly. Cool-climate precision, bright natural acidity, and a refined, understated style that’s all about balance. In the glass: 🍐 Pinot Gris 2024 – fresh orchard fruit, citrus, clean and vibrant 🍒 Pinot Noir 2023 – silky red berries, subtle spice, elegant structure 🍏 Chardonnay 2024 – lemon, apple, light toast with mineral lift 🌸 Rosé 2024 – grapefruit, wild strawberry, crisp coastal freshness There’s no excess here, just well-made wines that reflect place, not ego. Quietly becoming one of BC’s most consistent producers. #BlueGrouse #VancouverIslandWine #BCWine #CowichanValley #PinotNoir #Chardonnay #RoséWine #DrinkLocalBC #CanadianWine #WineLovers #ExploreBCWine
