Our Wines
Freedom Run Winery is committed to celebrating wine as a true form of art. Inspired by the beauty and history of our vineyard on the bench of the Niagara Escarpment, the Manning Family believe that the sites, sounds, and flavors of this area should be enjoyed by all who visit looking for wines with a sense of place. Our love of art and freedom of expression fuels our passionate dedication to making artisan wines that reflect our belief that everything we do affects wine quality.
​
The winery has developed a reputation for producing world class wines. Its success is built on quality, consistency, and characteristics of the Niagara Escarpment. We pick in small lots and maintain the identity of those lots through destemming/crushing, fermentations, and aging. These distinct lots provide the winemaking team with a rich palette from which to construct each blend. Our oak program involves deciding the right time to introduce new, French and Hungarian oak as well as over fifty used bourbon barrels. This helps us preserve the integrity and flavors of the fruit.

Light and fresh, this is a perfect everyday sparkler. ~ Alcohol 12.00% ~ 750 mL

This Cabernet Sauvignon was made exclusively as an Underground Wine Club offering. Cabernet Sauvignon may not be the grape most would identify with a cool growing region like the Niagara Escarpment yet it often plays a significant role in our best blends, offering structure and backbone with its hearty tannins and rigid acidity. Though more and more we taste vintages that demonstrate the grape's potential as a single varietal wine as in this estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon. ~ Alcohol 13.00%
