JL Denois Extra Brut Cremant
$41.99
Good Crémant is often lauded as a less expensive alternative to Champagne, but while this is true, the more important project is to create a crémant of place and substance that does not seek to replicate or outshine Champagne but rather to introduce its own terroir in its own rite. This, indeed, is what Jean-Louis Denois has done with his sparkling wines. Inventive in its blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and a 10% kick of Chenin Blanc, the estate's organically tended vineyards in the Haute Vallée de l'Aude benefit from an ideal climate. Thanks to their altitude and the proximity of the Pyrenees, the berries are perfectly balanced between acidity and fruit. No need for chaptalization or acidification, it is the precise harvest date that is decisive for a perfect balance and here Jean-Louis's years of expertise honed in his Champagne homeland, his education in Beaune, and his working travels in California, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa have all culminated in this life long project of proving Limoux's viability for world-class bubbles. The palate shows white fruit, almond frangipane, nectarine, and salted pineapple, a harmonious, dry, elegant, and joyfully fruit-oriented wine. Then the finish saunters in with notes of hazelnut, red berries, and toasted bread.
Cave Spring Icewine 375 ml
$79.99
Celebrate Canada! This sweet white wine was made from 100% Riesling grapes which were left to freeze naturally on the vine. Pressed on winter nights at temperatures of -8 degrees C or colder, these partly raisined berries produced a nectar-like dessert wine known for its luscious fruit flavors, honeyed sweetness and balancing acidity. Best after a festive dinner with a selection of fresh fruit and light cheese. Hard to resist.
Sperone Marsala Dry
$25.99
Marsala is like a distant cousin to sherry. Lord Nelson used Marsala to fortify the Royal Navy way back, when sailing ships sailed the high seas. Marsala is produced in the region surrounding the city of Marsala in Sicily. It's an intensely aromatic, fortified wine. Dry and clean. It's used in cooking and sauces but it's also very nice as an aperitif, or paired with Gorgonzola, Roquefort and other spicy cheeses.
