Angels & Cowboys Rose
$29.99
Built around Grenache, this wine has a colour so subtle we had to do a double-take to register it was a rosé. The aromas, however, are far more readily apparent, with apricot, orange and grapefruit zest, lime and apple. It's bright and focused with tangy-and-bitter citrus and a very crisp finish. Savour with pan-fried scallops and pork belly. (Vintages panel, March 2019)
Yukon Artisan Gin
$54.99
This gin is distilled by Two Brewers/Yukon Spirits in Whitehorse. They have been operating their stills for more than a decade now, and the Artisan Gin showcases their dedication to both the craft of distilling and to the Yukon territory itself. Bottled in small batches at 42% ABV.
From Yukon Spirits
"Our Artisan Gin is distilled in the Yukon and features a signature blend of botanicals. Over several years, we have refined the recipe which has resulted in an exceptionally smooth gin with a bold flavour profile. Juniper envelopes the palate with bright high-lights of citrus derived from lemon and orange zest. A subtle earthy spice on the finish establishes a well-balanced gin that is perfectly suited for a crisp winter evening or a beautiful summer day under the midnight sun."
Klinker Brick Brickmason Blend
$27.99
This wine is built around 80% Zinfandel with 10% Syrah, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petite Sirah in support. It's big, concentrated, complex and spicy, with ripe dark fruit, white pepper and vanilla underpinned by solid tannins. Best now through 2027, it will 'click' with duck confit.

True Colours Cava
$24.99
True Colours is a Cava which was originally created to support LGBTQ+ programs in Scandinavia. It is imported into Alberta by Redback Wine Imports, who has committed to donating $10 from every case sold to two great local programs: Calgary Pride and HIV Community Link.
Like most Cava, this sparkling wine is produced in Penedes, within the Catalonia region of Spain.
From Redback Wine Imports
True Colours was initially created for the Swedish market by Altia Sweden, in conjunction with the Cava producer Sumarrocca. It's a high-quality sparkling wine made in the metodo tradicional style (much like Champagne) from Xarello, Parellada and Macabeo, along with a small amount of Chardonnay. The palate shows a core of stone fruits, citrus and minerals with a toasty brioche finish.
"True Colours in Alberta is a partnership between Redback Wine Imports and Calgary Pride/HIV Community Link. We donate $10/case (750mL) and $5/case (200mL) to support the programs of these worthy organizations.
