September 2020 Tasting Notes

Our September Flyer offers some great summer savings. As the days slowly get shorter and we head into the Fall equinox we wanted to offer you some fantastic deals for those patio and end of summer beach moments.



Loubadère Côtes de Gascogne 
Loubadère is a small family owned winery tucked away in south-west of France. This lively and fruity white uses a blend of Colombard, Ugni Blanc and Gros Manseng. Showing vibrant citrus notes on the aromas with fresh flavours of pink grapefruit, apple and lemon on the palate. Sunshine in a bottle!



Wild Goose Autumn Gold
This fruity blend of Gewurztraminer, Riesling and Pinot Blanc offers just a hint of sweetness balanced with zesty acidity. An easy drinking wine with fresh notes of ripe apple and stone fruits with a touch of honey. Sweet chili prawns would pair beautifully.



Protea Dry Rose
Dry Rose from South Africa using a blend of 3 classic Rhone varieties. Tangy entry to the mouth showing nectarine, citrus zest along with light fruity hints of plum and red cherry. Juicy acidity lends to a great match for goat cheese and summer salads.




Trapiche Pinot Noir
This Argentinian Pinot Noir is a light and refreshing fruit driven wine. It bursts with a melody of red fruit flavours of strawberry, cherry and ripe plum. An easy drinking style that can be enjoyed on its own. Pinot Noir goes beautifully with chargrilled BC salmon so fire up the barby!




Upper Bench Merlot
This full-flavoured Merlot from Upper Bench Winery in Naramata is super smooth like liquid velvet. Flavours abound with black cherry, dark chocolate, blueberry and cigar box. The sweet spices from 18 months ageing in 30% new French oak come in through the finish. 



Shelter Point Wheat Whisky
We are proud to offer this as an Exclusive in collaboration with Shelter Point Distillery. This single cask wheat whisky is a first to be offered by the distillery. Locally sourced wheat was craft distilled and mellowed for 5 and ½ years in ex-Bourbon casks by the sea. Truly a one of a kind, tasting of summer and sea with hints of salinity and sweet honey.




Gosling’s Black Seal Rum
Founded in 1806, this Bermuda rum offers rich flavours of butterscotch, vanilla, charred orange peel and clove. The finish is smooth and spicy. Perfect over crushed ice with ginger beer and a squeeze of lime for that summer Dark and Stormy.
