A New Concept in Wine Making
We are also introducing a new concept in wine making in the Cowichan Valley, Foch-Eh. This is a big bold fruity wine made from 100% estate grown Marechal Foch. This wine is made by Carbonic Maceration and cold fermentation. It is an ideal summer wine to share on the patio.
