You may not know, but the wine producing regions Canada in the same latitude as the region almost too hot to Provence, France and the temperature is almost perfect in Tuscany, Italy. Then maybe we can say that latitude is not everything. Do not misunderstand.

You will not find discussed here for obvious reasons.

Colio Estate Wine Review Cabernet Franc VQA 2007 12.8% alcohol about $ 9.50
Start with marketing materials. Tasting Notes: Ruby red, blackcurrant, cherry, minerals, vanilla, spices and green pepper / aroma based plants, dry, medium bodied with ripe black berries, plum and light chocolate, fruit and cedar on the finish. Tip: Beef meat, beef dishes, game of chicken with herbs, barbecue, pasta. And now for my review.
I started taking this wine alone. It was very unpleasant, but not the acid and flavor of snuff. The first meal in question bought chicken wings grilled chicken breast and potatoes roasted in fat chicken. The tobacco flavor is very dominant. The wine is very acidic, which was good fats. A fresh mango, but not very tasty, it has succeeded flatten. Some sweet fruit juice to express cedar.
The second meal consisted of trade rib roast, beans green homemade tomato sauce and grilled eggplant with garlic. With the ribs tasted the wine, black cherry and plum. Unlike I had chocolate aubergine. Interestingly, when I add a spicy seasoning to meat the taste of chocolate became mint.
The last meal was beef stew with dumplings were slow cooked chicken with wheat. Now tested leather, chocolate and pepper. The wine was more complex than can generally expect in this price range. But in the end, was thin and slightly bitter. I tried it with a high quality, French style, very tart lemon butter and lemon right out of the freezer. Note that the wine tasted like cherries.
I finished this tasting with two cheeses. The first is a Provolone. The wine is acidic and fairly short. Then, with a piece of string, skim milk mozzarella served wine, essentially tasteless. Before giving my verdict let me tell you if I'm weird already a fan of cheese and wine and not let these pairings change my verdict final.
The final verdict. Pretty good. This wine was much more than many others in this price range. Without having planned, I just finished review of a wine Bourgueil from the Loire in central France has the same grape variety, Cabernet Franc, the signature red grape parties. That the cost of French wine almost double the price of Canada. Was it better? Yes it was twice too? Of course not. Draw your own conclusions.
