2020 Blanc De Franc

Blanc de Franc has an expressive nose of brioche, citrus, crisp apple and sweet herbs. The freshness carries through into the vibrant palate. The fruitiness is evident as flavours of grapefruit, green apple and Meyer lemon harmonize with the brioche notes. There is an enticing backbone of citrus zest, sweet herbs and the slightest hint of green olive. Blanc de Franc also shows its pedigree as there is a slight trace of red fruit, just a whisper of red currant and raspberry. The weight of the wine is pronounced, as the texture drives a long presence on the palate that slowly transitions into a delightful finish. Blanc de Franc is perfect with almost any food choices, but it is perhaps best enjoyed with sushi, oysters, stir fry, vegetarian fare, and quiche. 93 points- Rick Vansickle, Wines in Niagara
