Natalie's Score: 90/100

This rich, robust Niagara red wine was aged for 16 months in French oak, 20% of which was new and imparts a toasty flavour to the ripe black fruit. Lots of complexity and satisfaction in the glass. There's a cult following for the Laundry Cabernet Franc vintage after vintage. The 2012 vintage was a strong one. The grapes are grown on some of the oldest Cabernet Franc vines in Niagara. Pair with a rare steak.

Cabernet Franc food pairings: old cheeses, fried, roasted or barbecued meats, seared pepper steak, roast beef, game meats.
