Description

Arrowhead Spring Vineyards Cabernet Franc Rosé

We produce wines that reflect the thoughtfully chosen soils and climates from which they emanate. We respect our surroundings, maintain good stewardship of the land, uphold our commitment to the principles of sustainable farming and seek a deeper understanding of the natural living systems around us and our vineyard.

Great wine starts in the vineyards. Cluster thinning, leaf removal, shoot thinning and balanced pruning all lead to grapes that are balanced, flavorful and optimized for winemaking. Our Cabernet Franc rosé is made by the direct-press method and cold-fermented in stainless steel to preserve delicate color, fresh aromatics, and lively acidity. Traditional winemaking methods are employed to create wine reflective of our terroir, with minimal intervention.

The Niagara Escarpment has limestone-based soils dating from the Paleozoic era when the land was under a warm sea abundant with corals and shellfish. Combined with abundant summer sunshine and a cooler climate moderated by Lake Ontario, our vineyards produce balanced wines.
