Dirty Laundry Pinot Gris
$29.99
Dirty Laundry pays homage to its past while producing fun-loving, yet serious wines. It's a small family-owned Okanagan winery in Summerland, situated high above the original town site on a plateau that enjoys an ideal micro-climate and excellent sun exposure for growing exceptional grapes. Thanks to the vision of the vineyard’s founders, Dirty Laundry Vineyard has some of the oldest vinifera vines in the Okanagan Valley. The winery features a most welcoming and beguiling vine-covered patio that overlooks orchards, vineyards and Okanagan Lake, as well as the historic trestle bridge at Trout Creek Canyon.
The Pinot Gris is a bestseller at the winery, where it tends to sell out quickly each year. With notes of nectarines, freshly mowed grass and pears, this crisp white will pair well with grilled chicken, fish, seafood or turkey.
Quinta Da Aveleda
$17.99
Classic Portuguese white wine, crisp and easy to drink! "Aveleda Vinho Verde is a fresh, fruity light wine that offers freshness to the palate and romanticism to the spirit," according to the winery website. "Its simple label and the deep green bottle reveal what you are about to experience: a vivacious and smooth white Vinho Verde that can be the perfect match for light meals, seafood or served as an appetizer."
Bench 1775 Chill
$22.99
"Delicious fruit salad in a glass...Think lemon flan," according to the winery team! We won't argue - we're too busy enjoying those notes of lemon zest, apricot, guava and mineral, with just a hint of caramel on the finish. A fun blend of Pinot Gris and Chardonnay and, as the name suggests, serve it chilled. Located at 1775 on the Okanagan Valley's famous Naramata Bench, Bench 1775 is owned by the same team that owns Paradise Hill and Whistler, too.
Le Grand Verdus Bordeaux Blanc
$22.99
A pretty blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Muscadelle! According to the family of winemakers behind this value-priced white, it has "a rich aromatic palette, to delight all the senses: white flowers, pear and citrus fruit." The Le Grix de la Salle family started their winemaking business after the Second World War, but the family's roots on the estate go back to Renaissance times.
Paul Hobbs Crossbarn Sonoma Chardonnay
$49.99
90 points from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate for this wonderful Chardonnay! The review: "There are over 8,000 cases of the outstanding 2012 Chardonnay Cross Barn, which offers plenty of orange marmalade, lemon oil and white peach aromas. This steel-fermented, primarily stainless steel-aged Chardonnay (12-15% oak was employed) went through 100% malolactic fermentation. Crisp, fresh and steely, it comes across like a California version of a French Chablis with a richer, more tropical personality. It is a big-time winner as well as a great value. Enjoy it over the next 3-4 years." As for the name Crossbarn, it comes from the winemaker's childhood. "The 'cross barn' was nestled in the middle of our one hundred fifty year old family farm in upstate New York."
Coca i Fito Tocat de l`Ala Blanco
$50.99
An exciting KWM exclusive! Made from the indigenous grape varieties white Grenache and Macabeu and aged “sur lies”, the resulting wine is refreshing, citric, pleasant and makes our palate salivate. Good citric and tropical fruit notes, ripe white-fleshed fruit and perfumed flowers. This wine personifies DO Empordà wines, whisking us away to the rugged Costa Brava coastal coves at every sip. Enjoy with freshly grilled seafood, tapas, pasta and clams, or on its own.
Le Vieux Pin Petit Blanc
$35.99
Petit Blanc is supple (but not light), and free of heavy-handed winemaking. No new oak, no malolactic fermentation, no battonage, no nonsense! The 2022 vintage uniquely blends Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, and Roussanne. Stone and citrus fruit flavour elements are everywhere: apricot, peach, yellow plums, While orchard fruits come across on the mid-palate, the finish and the core of this wine has a citrus, stone fruit and tropical fruits all wrapped perfectly in balance together. 2022 was a cooler growing season and as such the resulting wine is lower in alcohol, even crisper than usual, with excellent focus and precision.
Seebrich Hipping Spatlese
$35.99
The winery was founded in Nierstein in 1783 and has been family-owned ever since. Knowledge, care, the learned craft, dedication, and passion have since shaped this estate. Their top priority is to focus on the essential, in their words: "To produce high-quality wines from high-quality grapes, by consciously dealing with nature. The focus is always on the desire to preserve all the ingredients that a grape develops. This care and the experience over decades are reflected in the quality of the wines". Heinrich Seebrich Senior converted the estate completely to viticulture in the 1950s. Since 1985, the estate has been run by Heinrich Seebrich Junior, who is assisted by his son Jochen. The vineyards cover 11 hectares in some of the best Nierstein vineyards, including the highly regarded Hipping site, the source for this wine.
Mosbacher Forster Ungeheuer Spatlese
$63.99
In 1921 Richard Mosbacher Snr. (1898-1977) founded the current estate together with his sisters and named it after their father Georg: 'Weingut Georg Mosbacher Erben' (Wine estate of Georg Mosbacher's heirs). The curved 'M' which decorates their wine labels up to this day goes back to these first years. Richard Mosbacher Jnr. took over responsibility for the cellars when his father Richard - a declared anti-Nazi - was appointed mayor by the Americans after the end of the Second World. The winery now produces some of the finest wines in the Pfalz and all of Germany for that matter. The grapes for this wine are grown on a south and southeast-facing vineyard, 60% of it slopes up towards the edge of the forest, while 40% is on the lower slopes, on soils composed of sandstone with limestone outcrops and basalt.
