Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Aromas of strawberry, raspberry and rhubarb are abundant in this Pinot Noir Rose. Citrus and floral notes on the palate lead to a crisp, clean, dry finish.
Production Notes
Grapes for this wines were harvested from select vineyards though out the Niagara Peninsula. Crushed immediately upon arrival at the winery, the must was allowed a cold soak for 12 hours before gently pressing off the skins. The juice was then fermented in stainless steel at a cool 15c for 10 days leaving a touch of residual sweetness to balance the wine’s acidity.
Winemaker Notes
This popular wine shows aromatics of strawberry, rhubarb and cranberry. The palate is nicely balanced with a touch of residual sweetness and crisp clean acidity.
Food Pairing Notes
Roasted duck with rhubarb sauce; watermelon salad with feta cheese and basil; seared tuna with cucumber salsa; brie with a Niagara cherry chutney; Grilled salmon with lime butter.

Beautiful, fruity, elegant(I love that it is so fresh, love the rhubarb note!) Just wonderful to enjoy such a crisp rose! I pushased my 1st bottle today, and even on such a snowy day here in Stratford sold at least 18 of my 48 on hand!! Thank you Bruce, and we look forward to many more great wines from this terrific 2012 harvest, thank you Inniskillin!

What an incredible rose! Often times deep roses get a reputation of being too sweet, however this beautiful wine is crisp, dry and refreshing. I would(and have been) recommending this to anyone! Even my non rose friends are loving this!

I was expecting it being sweeter cause it was a rose. And it tasted just like a regular Pinot Noir. Fantastic.
