Ontario makes superb pink wines, and Tawse proves the point for the umpteenth time with their 2025 Growers Blend Rosé. A mix of estate and grower fruit, it combines 68% Cabernet Franc with 25% Pinot Noir and dashes of Merlot, Gamay and Syrah. Deceptively easygoing at the outset with sneaky layers of complexity, the wine evokes fresh flowers, ripe melon, candied berries and a hint of tilled earth, with a luxuriously long finish.
