Marechal Foch
Marechal Foch
Frind Estate Winery 2024 Midnight
Canadian Red
Dark-fruited and generous, with plum, blackcurrant and blueberry layered over coffee, cedar and dark chocolate. Cocoa, smoke and a quiet leathery note deepen the palate, while cherry brings a fresher counterpoint. The texture is smooth and rounded, carrying savoury fruit through a composed finish. Pair with grilled beef, braised short ribs, roast mushrooms or firm cheese.
Averill Creek 2021 Piquette Rouge 473 mL
Canadian Red
Blackberry, currant and a savoury herbal note lead this lightly sparkling red, with vivid colour and the wild-fruit character of Maréchal Foch. Rehydrated red-wine pressings ferment naturally before a small dosage creates a gentle spritz in the can. The palate is juicy, tart and low in alcohol, finishing fresh rather than heavy. Serve well chilled with noodle dishes, charcuterie, grilled vegetables or picnic fare.
Rathjen Cellars 2020 Wine Bunker Red
Canadian Red
Ripe mulberry, blackberry and damson plum are joined by light soy and cedar frond. The texture is light, with soft tannins, mouthwatering acidity and a long finish. Gamay Noir, Maréchal Foch and Pinot Noir come from Cowichan Valley and the Saanich Peninsula. Sixty percent of the fruit was crushed, destemmed and fermented on skins; the remainder underwent carbonic maceration. Indigenous yeast completed fermentation before two years in barrel.
Orofino 2025 Semi-Carbo MF
Canadian Red
Pepper, black and blue fruit, iron and wild game appear through the profile. The deep purple wine has low tannins and a naturally soft character. It is made entirely from Marechal Foch grown in the Pozza Vineyard in the Olalla Gap. Whole berries ferment carbonically under carbon dioxide before pressing, stainless-steel fermentation and a rest in old 500-litre puncheons. The wine is neither fined nor filtered and carries 12.8 percent alcohol.
Bella x Ursa Major 2024 Ode to Sappho
Canadian Sparkling
Red currant, plum and espresso bean aromas meet red liquorice, sour cherry, cranberry, pomegranate and chocolate-cherry flavours. Marechal Foch from Hancock Vineyard in Naramata forms this sparkling red. The juice undergoes an open-top wild fermentation in stainless steel, then is racked from gross lees and bottled with sugar for secondary fermentation. The bottles are riddled and disgorged, with twenty parts per million of sulphur added.
Orofino 2025 Semi-Carbo MF Marechal Foch
Canadian Red
Deep purple colour accompanies black and blue fruit, pepper, iron and wild-game notes. Low tannins and the natural softness of Marechal Foch give an easy-drinking profile. Fruit from twenty-year-old vines in Pozza Vineyard was destemmed with berries left whole for carbonic fermentation under carbon dioxide, then pressed to finish in stainless steel and rested in old 500-litre puncheons.
Emandare Vineyard 2023 Estate Maréchal Foch
Canadian Red
Blackcurrant, plum and fig meet a hint of pepper. The wine is robust and is fermented and aged in neutral French oak. Fruit comes from the estate vineyard in the Cowichan Valley. The property is organically dry-farmed, and the winery made its first vintage after reviving an established vineyard. Production for this release totalled 175 cases.
Pamplemousse Jus 2024 Maréchal Foch
Canadian Red
Deep and inky, this red wine is made entirely from Maréchal Foch, a teinturier grape with dark skin and flesh. Blueberry and blackcurrant shape the fruit profile. The whole clusters are pressed before the juice moves into neutral oak, and alcohol is eleven and a half percent. The fruit comes from Summerland, British Columbia. The variety was developed in Colmar for resistance to cold and vineyard disease.
Averill Creek 2021 Joue Red
Canadian Red
Juicy blackberry, blueberry and raspberry lead, with wild herbs and earthy notes adding savoury depth. Pinot Noir, Gamay and Marechal Foch bring bright fruit, lively acidity and fine, medium tannins to a textured, energetic palate. The finish stays fresh and lightly rustic, making this cool-climate red a natural match for charcuterie, roast pork, grilled mushrooms or lentil dishes.
Blue Grouse 2022 Quill Red
Canadian Red
Blueberry pie and cassis lead into juicy red currant, plum and cranberry. Medium-bodied on the palate, it balances bright acidity with soft, plush tannins and a generous core of fruit. Subtle earth and a whisper of spice add savoury definition, carrying the berries through a smooth, lively and quietly persistent finish.
Niche NV The Counsellor Foch
Canadian Red
Drawn from several vintages, this small-lot red is shaped by complexity and balance rather than sheer weight. The palate feels generous and flavourful, moving toward an especially soft finish. Minimal-intervention winemaking keeps the profile direct and unforced, while careful blending gives it a composed, settled feel. Serve with roast pork, braised lentils, grilled mushrooms or aged cheddar.
