2021 Bella Terra "Reserve" Cabernet Merlot | 91+pts 🔥 Exclusive Pre-Release!
- 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Cabernet Franc, 16% Merlot, 9% Malbec
- Niagara Peninsula VQA ON
- meat lasagna, grilled NY striploin
This is another spectacular value wine from Bella Terra Vineyards. The 2021 vintage brought a good deal of challenges for many Niagara wineries, so the team at Bella Terra decided not to produce their top premium series.
The result was this wine: all the very best red barrels went into their mid-tier products, and the "Reserve" Cab Merlot emerged. This is a wine that absolutely punches WAY above its weight class, with some premium wine characteristics like fantastic length and texture.
On the nose, a good mix of black and crunchy red fruits, licorice cedar and hint of fresh sage. Aged for two years in the winery's French oak barrels, this garnet wine offers a solid core with expressive black cherry notes, blackberry, and red currant, accompanied by hints of expresso coffee, vanilla and oak spices. Dry, intense and creamy, the energetic flow lingers for an extended period of time, concluding with a velvety, complex and spicy finish. (Carl Boucher, October 9, 2024).

The Story & People
It's no surprise that members voted Bella Terra our first-ever Ontario Member's Choice Winery of the Year. Not only do we love the wines, with their excellent value proposition, we love the people and story behind this family-owned winery.
Bella Terra, formerly known as PondView, has been 'growing in Niagara' since 1976 when owner Lou Puglisi purchased his first piece of land as a wine grower. The winery now farms close to 100 acres of vines and Lou has achieved the coveted 'Grape King' title.
Working closely with the talented Fred Di Profio (winemaker) and Marcel Morgenstern (sales), Lou has turned Bella Terra into a Niagara benchmark for excellent, bold reds and some of the most delicious whites and bubblies our country has to offer.
I hope you can join us to discover the latest releases from Bella Terra!
Cheers,
Carl
About the Winemaker
Born in Ontario, Fred DiProfio has been studying and working in the Niagara wine region since 1999.
Inspired by the hands-on approach of winemaking and with a genetic predisposition to wine and Italian cuisine, Fred's daily work with grapes is always rewarding.
While expressing his creativity, he strives to promote and continuously improve grape growing and wine production through persistence, diligence, and knowledge.
With each passing harvest, Fred draws inspiration from the grapevines, working from gut instinct and a connection to the diversity of the Niagara Peninsula.
He is consistently pursuing excellence within the industry and works closely with Lou Puglisi, viticulturist and owner at Bella Terra Vineyards, to deliver consistently award winning wines year after year.
