Tawse Winery’s Grower’s Blend series celebrates the strength of Niagara’s vineyard partners. This Cabernet Franc draws fruit from carefully selected sites across the Niagara Peninsula, each contributing to its depth and complexity.

The 2020 growing season offered near-perfect conditions—warm, dry, and long—allowing the grapes to achieve ideal ripeness. After harvest, the wine was aged 16 months in French oak barrels, developing richness while preserving freshness and varietal purity.

Recognized with a Bronze Medal at the 2023 National Wine Awards of Canada, this vintage confirms Cabernet Franc’s rightful place among Niagara’s signature red wines. Enjoy now or cellar up to 2028 to explore its full potential.
