Special Wine
White Ice Wine Style
A wine experience. Ice wine is made from grapes that are frozen on the vine and hand picked at just the right time in the Canadian winter. The resulting nectar is filled with fervent flavors of peach and tropical fruit. It is a sweet wine meant as an after dinner pleasure. Gorgonzola, strawberries and our Ice Wine and you are in paradise.
Red Ice Wine Style
Similar to the white ice wine but even rarer. This garnet wine has a forward berry character and an exquisite full strawberry nose. If you are looking for a truly distinctive gift or simply to indulge yourself, pick up a bottle or a case today.
Serve with your favorite dessert, especially chocolate.
Ruby - Porto
Decadence in a glass, porto is a fortified wine to be savored. Rich and sultry with notes of chocolate, coffee and cigar, it can transport you to the Lisbon Coast with one sip. Made for Stilton cheese, pears and walnuts-or have a glass in a bubble bath with your favorite CD.
Black Cherry Pinot Noir
You’ll enjoy the succulent flavour of this ruby red wine with characteristics of fresh red berries and luscious ripe black cherries. Light and fruity this thirst quencher is a great accompaniment to a salmon topped salad and is a great addition to any summer festivity.
