Year after year, Cave Spring produces a tasty and affordable Pinot Noir. A juicy, mouth-watering, delicious Niagara red wine made from the classic Pinot Noir Grape. Aromas of ripe cherries and spice. Pair with roast chicken or turkey.

Pinot Noir food pairings: roast of chicken or turkey; spicy sausages; braised veal shank or rabbit; pork tenderloin with berry coulis; tomato-based pasta dishes; mushroom risotto.

Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Gorgeous ruby red with garnet hue. Uber mouthwatering acidity, fine grippy low tannins, wet stone minerality. Cherry, leather, savoury. Pairs well with grilled chicken. Tasted 2016 vintage in July 2018. 90 points
Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

A smooth and blissful cranberry and spice Pinot Noir. Loving the lingering tart cranberry flavours. Enjoy this light red with gourmet BBQ’d chorizo sausages. Tatsed July 2018 by @sommsosa.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
