Jackson-Triggs (Niagara Estate)
Jackson-Triggs is Canada’s most awarded winery. The sheer volume of accolades the estates have gathered over the years has been massive, cleaning up at both national and global competitions. Seemingly every Grand Reserve release has at least one medal attached to it. With both quantity and quality, it’s one of Canada’s best known wineries for a reason.
It was a shared and unrelenting passion that brought colleagues and friends Don Triggs and Allan Jackson together to form Jackson-Triggs in 1993. From the first vintage, these wines fully expressed the potential of Canada's burgeoning wine-growing regions from east to west.
The winery owns two major estates, one in Niagara-on-the-Lake and the other on the edge of the Okanagan Valley, with 200 acres of vinery for its diverse range of wines. The Niagara Estate Winery, established in 2001, is one of the most technologically advanced winemaking facilities in Canada and employs a gravity-flow assisted system of winemaking that eliminates pumping that could potentially harm the young wines.

From this Producer
This wine is poised and well-balanced with aromas of apricots, nectarines, Niagara peaches, cloves, and an abundance of stone fruit and vanilla custard. Well integrated on the palate with solid use of oak, vanilla bean, apricots, baking spice and cloves.
A delicious medium bodied red wine, with notes of oak, black currants, vanilla, cherry and plum both on the nose and the palate.
