Eight local Baco Noir’s from Lake Erie North Shore and one from the Niagara region will be put to a blind taste test and only one will be awarded the title as best local Baco.

Here is a list of Baco Noir’s that will be tasted:
Colio 2008,
Pelee Island 2008,
Mastronardi Casa Nostra 2008,
Erie Shore 2008,
Muscedere 2007 Reserve,
Aleksander 2007,
D’Angelo 2007 Reserve,
Sanson 2005 Reserve,
Henry of Pelham 2005 Reserve.

The eight local Baco’s will also be put to the test as they compete against what many consider one of the best Ontario Baco Noir’s from the Niagara region, Henry of Pelham 2005 Reserve.
