This wine is not from New Zealand, but rather from Australia. Forget for a moment that this wine comes in a can - it’s actually a perfect vessel for a 2-glass serving of sparkling rosé! Deep yet brilliant dusty rose colour, with aromas of strawberries and fresh cut flowers. A hint of effervescence helps lengthen the berry flavoured finish. Perfect as an appetitive, or for a mid-week sip. Tasted October 2020.

Beautiful Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand’s Awatere Valley - a sub-region of Marlborough. Known for it’s production of softer Sauvignon Blancs with more tropical fruit aromas, this vintage doesn’t disappoint. A bouquet of lemon, star fruit, white flowers and a hint of cotton candy swirl in the glass, and transform into a crisp lime finish. A real delight for Sauvignon Blanc lovers! Enjoy now, no need to cellar this one. Pair with goat cheese salads or cream based pasta dishes. Tasted September 2020.

A beautifully classic expression of Amarone. Heady aromas of prunes, blackberries, leather, violets and a hint of eucalyptus translate into a velvety black plum and cherry flavours with a spicy finish. Pair with grilled tenderloin or beet salads. Enjoy now or rest for five to 7 more years. Tasted August 2020.

This beautifully balancing Ripasso is an excellent representation of the Vendemmia region of North Eastern Italy. Ripasso wine is a combination of Valpolicella wine blended and fermented a second time (re-pass) with the dried grapes used to create Amarone. This creates a sophisticated, yet full bodied wine paired perfect with a variety of dishes. This Ripasso presents aromas of ripe black cherries, leather, vanilla, and cedar, with a carry through of the cherry flavours and a persistent spicy finish. Pairs beautifully with rose sauce pasta dishes. Tasted August 2020.

A bright and lively Gamay! Invigorating aromas of sweet cherries, violets and a hint of vanilla carry through to a spicy cherry finish. A beautiful expression of Gamay, from the Niagara region that does it best! Tasted March 2020.
