Red Wine

Clos du Soleil Signature 2021, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, BC V.Q.A., Canada: The winery specializes in Bordeaux blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot—bold, structured, and beautifully balanced. It's basically the Canadian Rockies in liquid form. This wine won the Silver Medal at the International Wine & Spirits Competition in London, England and was awarded 91 points out of 100. They farm organically and biodynamically, letting the rocky soils and mountain sunshine through every sip. This is the kind of wine that tells a story that’s elegant yet powerful, like the landscape it comes from. Try it with a steak, grilled Portobello mushrooms, or aged cheddar.

Sparkling Wine

Masi Modello Prosecco Doc Brut, Veneto D.O.C., Italy: Masi Modello Prosecco DOC Brut, Veneto, Italy is a lively, refreshing sparkling wine that bursts with aromas of green apple, white peach, and lemon zest, followed by a playful hint of almond on the finish. It’s dry, light-bodied, and gracefully effervescent with 11% alcohol. Serve it well chilled to let those crisp bubbles sparkle at their brightest. Fascinating fact: Winemaker Raffaele Boscaini—part of the seventh generation of the Masi family—brings the same precision and passion to this Prosecco as he does to their iconic Amarone wines. Notably, Masi was named "Winery of the Year" by Gambero Rosso, one of Italy’s most respected wine guides. Pair it with lightly salted popcorn and a movie night—because elegance and Netflix aren't mutually exclusive. Or serve it with sushi rolls, where its zippy acidity lifts the flavours and its bubbles refresh the palate between bites. Prosecco Doc Brut food pairings: green salads, seafood canapes, smoked fish on baguette. Drink: 2025 - 2027 27001 11% D 750 mL $18.95 Score: 93/100. June 2025. Best Value Sparkling Wine Full Review Add to Shopping Cart
