Red Barn – Cabernet Merlot VQA – 2017 Vintage

 

Paying homage to Pelee Island’s iconic red barn and rich agricultural history.
“As the southernmost community in Canada, and as the warmest place in Eastern Canada, Pelee Island has hosted an array of exotic crops that included sorghum, cotton, peaches, apricots, tobacco, peanuts, sunflowers and a variety of other fruits and vegetables. The test of time would leave soya bean, seed grains, grapes and other experimental crops remaining.”
