Fermentation by indigenous yeast proceeded steadily in a combination of old foudres (91%) and new oak demi muids (9%) and completed by early spring 2019. The wine was left to age in its fermentation vessels, wit hout battonage, racking and sulphur additions (until bottling) for a total of 22 months. 2018 Dix NeuviNeuvième was bottled unfiltered and un fined on September 8 th , 2020.
Alcohol: 12% /vol
Residual Sugar: <2 g/L
Madeline Cabernet Franc is rich dark purple in colour, this is a wine of deeply-rooted structure and classical dimensions. Reserved in its youth, yet graceful and smooth. The intensity and depth here are cool-headed and reined in with an elegant restraint. The bouquet speaks equally of blue-blooded Bordelais flavours and the lushness of Niagara. The palate is a study of symmetry, density of fruit and refined, round tannins - all holding together with seamless precision.

The Producer
Pearl Morissette
High demand and short supply has become the norm for Pearl Morissette, whose skyrocketing fame knows no bounds. Burgundy trained François Morissette is on our list of top-shelf Canadian producers who consistently deliver some of the most gorgeous wines imaginable. They are uncompromising wines of terroir that easily transcend the boundaries of the Niagara Peninsula.
François’ career in wine began in his early 20s when he spent a year working for Domaine Alain Gras in Saint-Romain, learning about the traditional winemaking methods of the region. Once he moved back to Quebec, he worked towards becoming a sommelier and spent the rest of the 1990s building some of the most ambitious wine lists in both Quebec and Ontario.
In 2000, the call of the vines was to loud to ignore and he moved back to France to pursue winemaking full-time, working for some of the most famous producers in the Côte d’Or including Frédéric Mugnier in Chambolle-Musigny, Christian Gouges of Domaine Henri Gouges in Nuits-Saint-Georges and Domaine Roulot in Meursault. After 7 years in Burgundy, he returned to Canada with an eye to make his own wine using the knowledge he gained abroad, and it wasn’t long before he found a partner (Mel Pearl, a developer in Toronto) with whom to make it all happen.
The estate now owns two vineyards: the 19th Street Vineyard in the Twenty Mile Beach VQA and the home vineyard which is next to the winery, that is part of the Creek Shore VQA.
