Birch Block Rose - 250ml Cans
$10.99
Grabbing a bottle of Rosé to share and enjoy with friends is always a good idea. Sometimes though? All you need is a can. This Rosé comes in a 250ml can instead of a bottle making it easier to grab, while also acting as it's own container that you can drink it from. Because people tend to look at you funny if you drink wine straight from a full-sized bottle. And this way you are not expected to share.
Clos Cibonne Tibouren Tradition Rose
$63.99
The heart of Clos Cibonne is their traditional, goblet-trained tibouren, which is believed to be a very old grape variety, originally grown in Mesopotamia, propagated by the Greeks, before being transported by the Romans to Italy in the Liguria region, where it is known as rossese. Tibouren is a very fine, thin-skinned grape which requires a lot of ventilation to be successful and needs to grow close to the ocean, with lots of ventilation to be successful and avoid issues with rot. All of these requirements make Clos Cibonne the perfect terroir for tibouren, as they are walking distance to the ocean and constantly blasted with the drying winds from the mistral. André Roux, the architect of the modern winery, was a great fan of this native variety and understood its potential to be the ideal grape for the region. It is one of the most expressive rose wines on the planet, and is rivalled only by Domaine Tempier in our opinion.
Meyer Rose
$29.99
Meyer is one of BC’s top wineries focusing on small premium Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Each wine reflects the single vineyard of its origin, the soil, the meso-climate, the aspect and the people that hand tend the vines. All wines are Hand-harvested and hand-crafted, with great attention to detail and minimal winemaking intervention. Meyer Family Vineyards wines are produced from two main vineyards, the 1.62-hectare “Old Main Road” vineyard on the Naramata Bench and the 6.9-hectare “McLean Creek Road” vineyard in Okanagan Falls.
Mazzarosa Cerasuolo
$30.99
Mazzarosa is a story of tradition, passion, and innovation, rooted in two extraordinary regions of Italy: Abruzzo and Tuscany. Founded in 1863 by Senator Giuseppe Devincenzi, the winery in Abruzzo reflects his pioneering vision for agriculture and winemaking. Over time, the Mazzarosa family extended their legacy to Tuscany, where the San Pietro estate has been crafting wine and olive oil for over 150 years. Together, these two historic estates embody the richness of Italian heritage and the values passed down through generations. The Mazzarosa Estates in Abruzzo span approximately 500 hectares, with 27 dedicated to vineyards aged between 20 and 40 years, located in one of the most favourable areas in Abruzzo for winemaking.
Liquidity Rose
$32.99
Liquidity was established in 2008 when Ian MacDonald, a businessman and art collector, teamed up with some Calgary energy industry executives to buy an ailing Okanagan Falls vineyard left over from a failed winery project. It was a success, and a few years ago it was sold to the Iconic Wineries group, owned by Anthony von Mandl (of Mission Hill and White Claw fame). Grown specially for rosé, the pinot noir for this wine comes from their home vineyards in Okanagan Falls and Oliver. Each block was picked at the perfect ripeness for rosé, capturing unique flavour profiles specific to those sites. It's classic rosé, with citrus and crushed strawberry flavours.
Feudo Montoni Rose de Adele
$40.99
"There are few estates anywhere in Italy making more compelling wines today." - Ian D'Agata
In 1469 A.D., in the heart of Sicily, the noble Aragonese family Abatellis built the baglio (a typical Sicilian court square building) where Montoni's wines are made even today. Since Roman times, durum wheat has been cultivated in the Sicilian hinterland. Within these massive expanses of yellow durum wheat, the green vineyards of Montoni have flourished for over 600 years.
For centuries, the wheat fields have contributed to a “natural isolation”of Montoni’s high-altitude vineyards. The “Island of Montoni” extends for approximately 80 hectares, with altitudes between 500 and 700 meters. The vines are situated on a hard mountain slope, all east facing, in soil that ranges from sandy to clay. The winds, tramontana and scirocco, and the exposure support Montoni's certified organic farming.
Roederer Cristal
$519.90
Wonderful, just wonderful! And the critics agree, too! Robert Parker's Wine Advocate gave this beauty 93 points. The review: "Roederer’s 2006 Brut Cristal is striking in its sense of lift and delicacy, serving as one of many instances where those bringing preconceptions of this vintage’s warmth and ripeness of fruit to their experience may be pleasantly surprised. A nose of fresh apple, fennel and cucumber sets up associations with a slaw or salad that are crisply, lusciously and refreshingly redeemed on the palate. A garland of honeysuckle and heliotrope complements subtle suggestions of raw almond and vanilla, while alkaline and iodine notes as well as cooling but pungent green herbal notes add to the soothing yet stimulating finish. This exceptionally poised, refined, and buoyant performance is apt to gain depth with a few years’ bottle age."
