"DATE: 07-13-07 Appearance: Deep ruby / purple.
Nose: Soft nose has cherry and plum, with spicy oak and a bit of an earthy character developing.
Palate: Dry with good acidity, midweight. Palate follows the nose nicely, adding rich ripe mouthfilling tannins and a bit of warmth midpalate. Quite long dry clean finish.
Conclusions: Excellent value in a general purpose food wine, should age another three or four years. Really good value in maturing wine." lfw


FROM THE PRODUCERS:"Our Covered Bridge is unique to the Niagara Peninsula and suitably is the logo for a unique line of wines. Our red bridge wine is a blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Zweigelt. Lightly oak aged, this wine is smooth and aromatic with hints of chocolate, leather and licorice. Serve with grilled meats, roasts, steaks and pasta dishes with tomato sauce."
