Tasting Notes
Ridgepoint has been off the radar for the last few years - they've been making wine but they have not made any really exciting wine ... but all that is about to change with Barclay Robinson taking the helm of winemaking and bringing with him a new energy and spirit to Ridgepoint, starting right here with this interesting and tasty blend of two standard grape varieties with an Italian twist. This wine is made from 20% Aglianico of which all of it was dried (in a greenhouse) a new trend here in Ontario - then each individual component was aged in a mix of French and American barrels. But it's not the nose that'll impress you, it's the palate. It's the hit of spice, the robust red fruit and the spice. Yes I said spice twice cause that's the part that you'll remember. There's nice complexity here and it'll age extremely well over the next 5+ years - you just have to have the patience to lie it down and not drink it up right away. Score - 4+ Stars (out of 5).
