Region: Quebec
Country: Canada
Grapes: Marquette, De Chaunac, Frontenac
Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry
A rustic, food-friendly red from Quebec's cold-climate frontier, built around the wild blueberry and red plum character typical of Marquette and Frontenac Noir, with an earthy, peppery edge contributed by De Chaunac. The high natural acidity of these hybrid varieties keeps the wine lively and refreshing, while the tannins are firm but approachable. Expect an honest, terroir-driven wine that reflects the short growing season of Saint-Armand rather than trying to mimic warmer-climate styles.
Serving: Serve at 15–17 °C.

Where it comes from
Quebec, Canada
Quebec is a cold, northern province of eastern Canada with a small but growing wine industry, concentrated south of Montreal near the US border.
Marquette
Marquette is a red hybrid grape developed by the University of Minnesota and released in the 2000s, bred for excellent cold hardiness so that quality red wine could be grown in harsh northern climates.
De Chaunac
De Chaunac is a red hybrid of mixed European and American parentage, developed in France and later valued across cooler parts of North America for its disease resistance and tolerance of hard winters.
Frontenac
Frontenac is a red hybrid grape developed by the University of Minnesota's breeding programme, created to survive brutally cold winters while still ripening a usable crop.
