Douro, Portugal

Jennifer scored this wine: 89/100

For the price, this is a no-brainer of a buy. A lovely red blend, this wine has soft red and black berry notes, a touch of spice, and sweet tobacco. Medium bodied, smooth, and perfect to accompany any pork or more robust seafood dishes, such a a nice seafood stew.

A nice, lighter alcohol version for those looking for something with less alcohol. Still lots of rich berry notes, but lighter on the palate. Enjoy with winter stews and other hearty fare.

Tasted in 2026, this wine still has vibrant floral and citrus aromas including peach and white florals. More dry on the palate with citrus and peach notes, along with hints of white pepper and salinity. Enjoy with any shellfish.

Jennifer scored this wine: 93/100

A beautiful blanc de blanc sparkling wine truly worthy of any celebration! This tradititional method sparkling wine made from Chardonnary has aged 15 years on lees. The result is a lovely creamy texture, combined with a resilient, fine, and persistent bubble. Aromas of tart apple, brioche, almonds, and a touch of honey, enjoy this wine with oysters or any other shellfish.

Jennifer scored this wine: 92/100

Beautiful New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc that brings together fresh herbal, and tropical flavours. Aromas of lime, green herbs, pineapple, and lemongrass. Light bodied with vibrant, fresh acidity, and a smooth soft feeling on the palate, contrasted with vibrant citrus on the palate with hints of melon, grass, gooseberry and pineapple. Enjoy with oven roasted halibut or other white fish.
