Our Loups~Garoux Frontenac Noir is grown in the West Addison vineyard, on clay and limestone, but favoring the thick layer of grey, black, yellow, brown clays specific to this old sea bed, grown among wild purple aster, daisy fleabane, golden rod, and wild mint.  Made in honor of traditional Ripasso or Amarone from the Veneto, dried and fresh fruits dovetail together to knit a fabric of deep flavors and bright acidity.  Aged for two years in old French barrels before release.
