Each case contains 1 bottle of each:

 

 

Cazal Viel Rose - 2023

Light salmon in colour. Fruity and light. with pretty floral notes as well as citrus aromas, interspersed with notes of nectarine and peach and a hint of wet stone. The harmonious palate is fresh, light and delicious with seductive flavours of slightly ripe white fruits.

 

Telmo Rodriguez Basa - 2023

Basa is made from Verdejo and Viura grapes in the Rueda DO, about two hours northwest of Madrid. The name comes from the 40-year-old 'baso' or bush-trained vines that are planted on limestone-rich soils at over 700-meters elevation on a plateau along the Duero River. The vineyard is farmed organically, and fermentation is carried out spontaneously with native yeast. Expect a fresh, fruit-driven white wine with just the right balance between charming fruit and aromatic complexity.

 

Chateau de Caraguilhes Cochon Volant Blanc - 2023

Brilliant clarity, very pale yellow with green reflections showing a beautiful freshness. Very expressive with lively lemony notes. Beautiful salivating freshness. The Viognier brings here all its aromatic fullness on the palate without heaviness, supported by the freshness of the Colombard. A pleasure wine to drink simply, with friends. Pair with grilled mussels, monkfish with fennel, oysters, or on its own as an aperitif.

 

Villa Sparina Gavi - 2023

Bright yellow colour, delicate bouquet of dried pineapple and peach. Full and rich in flavour, yet mineral and refreshing. Fine aromatic flavour to the end. A tangy and fresh Gavi full of sliced apples, lemon zest and stones. Medium-bodied and textured on the palate with fresh, vibrant acidity and a pure, pithy finish.

 

Staete Landt Annabel Sauv Blanc - 2023

Wonderfully fruited and inviting, the bouquet shows crunchy apple, white flesh nectarine, sweet basil and lime peel aromas on the nose. The palate displays excellent weight and fruit intensity together with fine texture and bright acidity, leading to a lengthy delectable finish. 

 

Vincent Caille Je T'Aime Mais Jais Soif - NV

Beautiful yellow-green color. Young and fruity wine which develops aromas of citrus fruit. The white wine “Je t’aime mais j’ai soif” can be served with seafood as well as with fresh water fish or sea fish. It will be perfect for aperitif.

Tawse Quarry Road Riesling - 2021

 

Organically farmed, this wine has complex notes of white flower, slate, and petrol. The palate reveals candied ginger, pineapple, and pear. Well-balanced Rieslings such as this one are well suited for foods with some acidity such as an apple glazed pork belly, or any dish with a bit of spice like Pad Thai.

 

Tawse Grower's Blend Cab Franc - 2020

Made from select Cabernet Franc vineyards in Niagara. The Grower’s Blend Cab Franc from the 2020 vintage is ripe, rich and smooth due to the near-perfect growing conditions. Barrel aged for 16 months, this wine shows notes of blueberry, blackberry,cigar box. A prime example of of how well Cabernet Franc does as a single varietal in Ontario.

 

Bachelder Gamay Wiley - 2022

A pure mid-cherry colour that leads to a graceful pomegranate, sour-cherry and cherry-pit nose and offers a fuller mouthfeel with a muted fruit and a rusty, iron-tinged edge so typical of Bench wines. Make no mistake: there is great volume developing here. The “cérises vanillées” ride on a great wave of orange zest and grenadine-like fruit that almost obscures the liquorice-all-sorts complexity.

 

Bachelder Villages Pinot - 2020

Elegant, immense and lightly astringent. A great, corrupt nose of red and black fruit shines – currently with cloves and spice behind and already turning agreeably tertière! Lovely and rose-petaled, and rich in the mouth. The striking acidity and the glycerine-silkiness simply surprise! The finish is long, and only slightly (but ripely) tannic. Shockingly good now, yet so ageable over half a decade! Here, right here, is a wine that will be largely drunk TOO YOUNG -  but still has much, so much to give, to reveal! If you want to age a truly great Pinot Noir that doesn’t cost $$$, this is the one!

 

The Long Way Home Chardonnay - 2022

A classic expression of Chardonnay grown in the cool-climate of the Beamsville Bench. Made from a single vineyard with minimal intervention, this is a blend of cool, skin fermented and whole bunch pressed, barrel fermented fruit, aged for 10 months in French oak. The wine shows fresh aromatics, balanced natural acidity and a fine, creamy texture.

 

Benjamin Bridge Brut - NV

In the glass, a pale golden colour with a straw hue. On the nose, the wine displays suggestions of smoke and lemon rind with strong sea minerals undertones. The palate is luscious, but with good intensity and vibrancy. Hints of green apples and dried cranberries are magnified by the wine’s bright structure, unfolding in a lengthy mineral finish.
