a hybrid crossing developed in Niagara often viewed as Canada's answer to Chardonnay

Lingua Franca, 'Avni' Pinot Noir, 2022 2019 with ripe lemon fruitThis wine is round and fresh with power and elegance in perfect balance. Red cherry, strawberry and raspberry dominate here but with a touch of darker black cherry. Rose petals, black tea and tar lift the nose while bringing oomph. There is a touch of whole bunch and a careful use of a range of oak barrels. This may be the most regionally representative wine Lingua Franca has made a delicious way to discover the region!
