November 18, 2012 CREW 2008 Cabernet Franc with Maple Spice Salmon. http://www.essexcountywineries.ca/wines/2012/20121118.htm Heard it through the grapevine! George Clooney at Colchester Ridge Estate Winery? Who knew? Amazing fun facts you can find out when talking about Essex County Wineries! This winery welcomed a visit from the actor himself after dining at a local restaurant serving Crew wine. Which one did he buy? Time for a road trip to find out! We enjoyed Crew Cabernet Franc 2008 (available in LCBO in January) with cedar planked Canadian Atlantic sugar and spice salmon as an aperitif . An excellent match! A fruit and nut salad from Chatelaine magazine accompanied Crew Riesling 2010. Both premium quality award wining wines!

February 17, 2013 - Crew's Posh Cuvée 2011 and Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 with Australian sharp white cheddar cheese. ReWINEd with the Grammys Red carpet stars and fashion arrivals are always a must see on Music's biggest night. We relaxed with a glass of Crew's Posh Cuvée 2011 and Cabernet Sauvignon 2008. While snacking with an Australian sharp white cheddar cheese, we saw if our predications were worthy of the categories of the evening. A memorable performance of both wine and entertainment! http://www.essexcountywineries.ca/wines/2013/20130217.htm
