Studert-Prüm Maxiominhof Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett 2016
VINTAGES#: 970129  SHOP 
Ripe tangerines are accented by notes of caramel, crushed earth and fennel in this earthy, slightly savory kabinett. Bristling lemon acidity and honey tones brighten the midpalate, leading a finish edged by spice and a hint of tannins. Score: 87. (Anna Lee Iijima, Wine Enthusiast, April 2018)
Côte Bleu Méditerranée Rosé Igp
LCBO#: 541276  SHOP 
This beautifully elegant, dry rosé has been sourced from specially selected vineyards in the sunny Mediterranean region. Pale pink in colour, it is packed with fresh strawberry and raspberry flavours. Perfect with antipasti and seafood.
E. Guigal Côtes du Rhône Blanc 2016
VINTAGES#: 290296  SHOP 
The normal blend of Viognier, Roussanne, and Marsanne, the 2016 Cote du Rhone Blanc tastes like a mini-Condrieu with its white peach, apricot, spice and citrus aromas and flavors. This medium-bodied, elegant, yet textured beauty over-delivers and will keep for 2-3 years. Score: 90. (Jeb Dunnuck, jebdunnuck.com, Jan. 24, 2018)
Mas des Bressades Cuvée Tradition Rosé 2017
VINTAGES#: 950576  SHOP 
Rosés from Costières de Nîmes must comprise a minimum of 60% Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, with Carignan and Cinsault in support. This one is a perennial customer favourite, beloved for its charm and depth of expression. From one of the most reliable names in the Southern Rhône, it will offer vibrant, juicy, sunny fruit with savoury herb and garrigue tones. Perfect for grilled seafood, this will delight, plain and simple.

Gardet Cuvée Saint Flavy Tradition Brut Champagne
VINTAGES#: 924654  SHOP 
A solid, balanced champagne at a reasonable price, simple but authentically toasty, with lively citrus and brioche-yeast flavours. A delicate and refined style, aiming for finesse rather than sheer power. Score: 90. (John Szabo, MS, winealign.com, July 2016)
