This well-balanced blend of Merlot (70%) and Syrah (30%) sports appealing aromas of red fruit, mocha and vanilla before a well-textured, quite full-bodied palate wrapped in juicy acidity. Easy, well-integrated tannins and toasty notes from 14 months in used French oak.
The Pošip grape is indigenous to Croatia’s Dalmatian coastal region. Although more commonly light-bodied, this rendition displays richness and complexity. Wide-ranging aromas include citrus, herbs and vanilla. Peach and citrus flavours fill out a well-balanced palate. Spiciness lingers. A natural for seafood.
Pouring light gold and cloudy, this cider, crafted by one of Canada’s natural wine pioneers, is fermented with Southbrook’s indigenous white wine yeast for a complex yet highly quaffable sipper. A bright apple-juice character dominates the nose, while the palate is marked by citrus, apple pie, pear skins, apricot and peaches. Delicate carbonation, medium tannins and a dry finish lend a rustic feel to this cider.
A smooth and impressive unseated Islay malt with aromas of candied ginger and orange peel, honey and nuts. Fresh and complex, tasting of cactus pears and salted toffee, exotic spices and again, a distinctive nuttiness.
Bright, fresh and lively aromas and flavours of citrus, lime and apricot with a racy crispness, great balance, minerality and lifted acidity on the refreshing finish.
Dense purple-ruby in colour with a nose of sandalwood and strawberry purée. Medium-bodied, dry, elegant and beautifully balanced with firmly structured red plum flavour that lingers.
Opaque purple in colour, this richly extracted Bac behaves more like a vinifera than a hybrid. Spicy, slightly herbal on the nose, it shows blackberry fruit with vanilla oak notes. Medium-bodied and dry, jammy flavours of black plum and prune accented with vanilla oak fill the mouth.
