Aure 2010 Umoja - Cabernet Franc
This new winery on the Beamsville Bench might end up being one to watch. The name for the wine comes from the Swahili language and means "unity" - the wine took on that name because the winery was hosting an event for International Needs on the day it was released. This is a very good Cabernet Franc showing the stylistic character of Cabernet Franc with a little extra. Nose is tobacco with cherry and raspberry fruit ... palate shows a little more complexity, sure it has the tobacco, but there's also a little leather, touch of smoke, hint of spice, plus fruit ... and it's the fruit here that really shines over top of all those other flavours. Price: $22.20 - Rating: ****
