Description

Discover the Tantalus Cabernet Franc 2022, a standout from Tantalus Vineyards in Canada's Okanagan Valley. Since 1927, this historic site in British Columbia has upheld a legacy as one of the region's oldest continuously operating vineyards, channeling the land's unique character into every bottle. The Further Afield Series captures that essence with precision, offering a red wine that speaks volumes about its origins.

Pour a glass and meet a vivid ruby color that hints at the vibrancy inside. The aromas rise with intriguing layers—think tomato leaf mingling with cardamom, fresh tobacco, and crushed rocks, all woven together by juicy raspberry and pomegranate. On the tongue, it unfolds similarly, balancing plum and raspberry fruits alongside tobacco and pomegranate whispers. A persistent finish runs long, anchored by a mineral thread that echoes the excellence of its high-quality source.

Sourced entirely from Cabernet Franc grapes grown in a certified-organic vineyard in Osoyoos, this 13% ABV wine in a 750 ml bottle reflects thoughtful handling. Fermentation happened in distinct batches at different temperatures, blending wild and inoculated yeasts, with some lots incorporating up to 40% whole clusters for added depth. It's a British Columbia gem that invites you to explore the Okanagan Valley's red wine potential.

Whether pairing with grilled meats or savoring solo on a quiet evening, Tantalus Cabernet Franc 2022 delivers a compelling experience. From the storied vines of Tantalus Vineyards, it brings Canada's premier wine country right to your table. Secure your bottle of this Cabernet Franc and taste the terroir-driven allure of the Okanagan.
