In 2010, Joana and António founded Maçanita Vinhos after an invitation from a local Douro family who had read about these playful and ambitious sibling winemakers. Both siblings contribute to Maçanita Vinhos, but the challenging Douro Valley has been Joana’s passion project since the start, and Joana and her children even moved to the Porto area to be closer to the winery and vineyards. Setting down roots in the region has allowed her to focus her famous energy into expanding the rising star that is her Douro career.

Maçanita’s Letra F reflects the ever-evolving landscape in the wine world: a fresh, field-blend wine hailing from some of the most intriguing vineyard sites in the Douro. A field blend of more than 20 red and white grape varieties from 70- to 110-year-old vines. 70% red and 30% white grapes. They are planted to granitic soils at an average altitude of 500m (1,600 ft) to 730m altitude (2,400 ft) elevation.

Ruby color. On the nose, red fruit tinged with white flowers and mineral notes. On the palate, fresh and lively, with bright acidity, showing intensity and concentration of aroma. Tannins are long, fine, and grippy, guiding this lighter-bodied red to a very saline finish.

Château Haut Grelot, situated near the Gironde Estuary north of Bordeaux, has been dedicated to vineyard care and winemaking since 1920. 

This classic Bordeaux blend features 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, cultivated in the gravelly, sandy, and silty soils of Côtes de Bordeaux. Exhibiting a deep ruby hue, its bouquet reveals vibrant red berry aromas complemented by vanilla and spice. On the palate, the wine is smooth, fruit-forward, and well-structured, making it an excellent companion to game or red meat dishes.

In 1985, Mario and Nancy Adamo transformed a 28‑room inn north of Toronto into Hockley Valley Resort, embracing a location that truly felt like home. Inspired by the vine‑covered hills of his hometown in Calabria, Italy, Mario envisioned the slopes of Hockley Valley as a place where grapes could thrive. In 2000, the first test vines on a newly purchased 77‑acre property were planted, and by 2015, Adamo Estate Winery was born. Today, this boutique, small‑batch winery boasts over 28,000 vines, farmed with organic and biodynamic principles. Led by winemaker Shauna White, the team crafts terroir‑driven wines that showcase both the character of Hockley Valley and select sites from Niagara’s most renowned vineyards.

This concentrated Pinot Noir opens with inviting aromas of ripe raspberry and sweet red cherry, followed by floral whiffs of rose petal and softly toasted spice and leather. Medium-bodied and lifted by refreshing acidity, the palate unveils layers of bright red berries, clove, and earthy herbs, all framed by silky, well-integrated tannins. Juicy fruits melt into the gentle toasted nuances, culminating in a supple and lasting finish. 

A versatile partner at the table, this pairs beautifully with duck and game birds like pheasant or quail.

Founded in 1946 by Epifanio Dal Bianco, Masottina began as a small estate in Gorgo al Monticano, named after an ancient inscription found on the original farmhouse. Today, under the leadership of the second generation, the family has expanded the winery into a benchmark for the region, cultivating more than 370 hectares of vineyards. Rooted in the land yet forward-looking, Masottina blends respect for tradition with innovation, expressing the character of its unique territory through a family passion and style that is unmistakably its own.

Dedicated to the ancient Contrada Granda, the historic heart of Conegliano, this wine reflects the same deep-rooted history and tradition in its blend. It brings together the diverse expressions of the Conegliano Valdobbiadene hills: the fruit-driven richness of Ogliano, the delicate florals of Solighetto, and the vibrant acidity of Rolle.

In the glass, it shines a pale, bright hue with lively bubbles, opening on fragrant jasmine and wisteria layered with notes of pear and crisp cantaloupe. The palate is dry yet supple, beautifully balancing brisk acidity with ripe fruit, leading to a fresh, pulpy finish that lingers with elegance.

A must at aperitivo-time or a great accompaniment alongside pasta dishes served with a creamy sauce or white meats.

Christine Aubert, alongside her son Aurélien, has owned Domaine Autrand in the charming village of Vinsobres, Drôme Provençale, since 2002. As the third generation to manage the family business, Christine took over the property and was joined by her eldest son in 2008. The majority of the vineyard was planted after the olive tree frost of 1956, when the Autrand family decided to restructure their farm. Today, the vineyard has an average age of around 45 years, reflecting the long history and dedication of the Aubert family.

A vibrant red from the Rhône Valley, bursting with aromas of candied cherry, blackcurrant, and a touch of black pepper. The palate is generous yet balanced, with ripe fruit depth, harmonious tannins, and a long, aromatic finish that lingers beautifully.

A natural match with grilled burgers, or pork ribs covered in sticky barbecue sauce.

As at many family domaines with deep roots in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, vigneron Alexandre Favier was by his own account “raised in the vineyards”: Alexandre’s grandfather, Noël Sabon, is from one of the best known winemaking families in the region. Alexandre himself began his viticultural studies in Orange at the age of fifteen and passed the exams four years later in 2001. A year later (at age twenty!) he took over winemaking duties at the domaine when his father experienced health problems. Today, Domaine Chante Cigale is one of the most important family estates of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

This is a traditional house with 40 hectares of red grapes and 5 hectares of white. They have parcels in all of the main soil types of Châteauneuf and they vinify the top parcels separately. Only native yeasts are employed in the cellar.

A full-bodied white with rich, ripe pear fruit that develops into floral and herby peachiness. The wine has a long leesy character and fresh acidity. Attractive when young but worth leaving for a couple of years, which will allow the wine to develop some wonderful nutty and mineral notes.

Enjoy this white blend with grilled red mullet with charred onion and pine nuts.

The Winery of Good Hope is more than just a winery - it's an approach. Along with making lively and approachable wines, this is a project that's fully accredited for environmental, ethical, and social upliftment practices. Wines are made in the prestigious wine-making region of Stellenbosch, in South Africa’s Cape of Good Hope. 

Sourced from two mature Syrah vineyards, rooted in the decomposed granite soils of the Helderberg mountainside overlooking False Bay. These vineyards thrive in the cooling breezes of the famed Cape Doctor - the south-easterly wind that sweeps in from the nearby ocean. The rocky, gravelly terrain fosters balance and fine texture in the wines, which display restrained fruit, delicate spice, and subtle fynbos nuances.

This refreshing Cape Syrah opens with fragrant notes of rosemary and lavender layered over crushed black pepper and vibrant plum fruit. Elegant and softly textured yet carrying impressive intensity, it's medium-bodied with a lingering, tapering finish.

In 2013, husband & wife team Chris and Andrea Mullineux partnered with Analjit Singh (BAS) to establish Leeu Passant winery on the beautiful Leeu Estates in Franschhoek. The winery is dedicated to showcasing the South African landscape and climate, with a strong commitment to environmental stewardship and community upliftment. By working with some of the Cape’s oldest and most exceptional vineyards, they honour the country’s rich winemaking and viticultural heritage.

Sourced from a historic parcel of dry-farmed bush vine Cinsault planted in 1900, rooted in deep sandy alluvial soils in Wellington. Recognized as South Africa’s oldest registered red wine vineyard, it continues to produce fruit of remarkable character and heritage.

This aromatic wine opens with an alluring, complex bouquet of roses, cranberries, cherries, warm spice, and a whisper of thyme. The palate is fresh and silky, layered with notes of orange peel, rhubarb, maraschino cherry, pink peppercorn, and clove. Fine tannins provide elegant structure, carrying the flavours through to a refined finish.

Garage Wine Co was quite literally started in a garage in 2001, by Etobicoke expat Derek Mossman and his wife Pilar Miranda. Since then, the dynamic duo have chosen to revive old vineyards in marginalized Chilean communities. They work mostly in the regions of Maule and Itata where they make highly coveted wines.

Vigno stands for Viñadores de Carignan and is an association of producers whose goal is to create an appellation of origin for wines made from old Carignan vines that have been dry-farmed and bush-trained in the Maule Secano area.

The 2021 Vigno gives spice and mineral notes on the lifted nose, layered with vibrant red and blue fruit, gradually unfolding into hints of violet and rhubarb. The palate is concentrated yet lively, with energetic black raspberry, spice cake, and floral pastille flavours. A zesty, pleasantly bitter note of blood orange adds edge and tension through the finish. It glides to a smooth, sweet, and impressively long close, with lingering floral and spice tones and supple tannins lending structure and a gentle, persistent grip. 

Wines made from Carignan are ideal with richer poultry dishes such as turkey or duck, roasted pork, or even a meaty beef brisket.

A breakout star in the Etna DOC of Sicily, Tornatore has become one of the region's largest and most respected wineries. Established back in 1865, the estate continues to be run by the same family who have acted as the faithful custodians of the land for generations. Tending to high altitude vineyards on the north side of the active volcano, the conditions are ideal for indigenous grape varieties to thrive. The wines are distinctive bottlings which encapsulate the essence of Mount Etna and effortlessly reveal the unique characteristics that make the region one to watch.

Connoisseurs of Etna wines recognize Contrada Calderara as a top cru, known for its unique soil of black pumice and basalt from ancient lava flows. Covered with large heat-retaining stones, this area, aptly named Calderara (or caldron), releases stored heat during cool nights, allowing the grapes to capture the soil's minerality, resulting in transparent and vibrant wines.

Intense aromas of morello cherry, pomegranate, and wild blackberry meld with subtle hints of baked earth and scrubland undergrowth on the nose. The palate reveals striking balance, alternating between firm tannins and sweet, red fruits that integrate perfectly with the oak. The mineral nuances of lava stone and saline quality that linger on the nose assert themselves boldly alongside the ripe fruit flavours. This wine displays great structure and promises longevity.

An ideal pairing for stewed red meats, grilled meats and mature cheeses.

Nicolas Potel is an iconic producer and pioneer in the Burgundy winemaking scene. He grew up in a family dedicated to wine; and after gaining some experience internationally, he started his own project in the late 90's. The Maison Roche de Bellene offers a complete range of carefully cultivated and versatile wines, often made from old vines. All of the Maison wines are made with respect to sustainable and natural farming practices, with as little intervention as necessary to showcase their individual terroirs.  

Crafted from a blend of Beaune Premier Cru vineyards - Les Aigrots, Les Bressandes, and Les Toussaints - this wine reflects Maison Roche de Bellene’s thoughtful selection from elevated sites in Beaune. The nose is lifted and expressive, with concentrated red berries layered with subtle herbs and fragrant florals. Bright, refreshing acidity gives energy to the ripe fruit, which eases into fine-grained tannins. Silky and elegant in texture, the wine carries through to a rich finish, where hints of woodland and smoke add depth and complexity.

Sip with mild cheeses, chicken or rabbit in a creamy mustard sauce or smoked game meats.

Bideona’s village wine series is intended to showcase the differences in character among the great, historic wine villages of Rioja Alavesa. This series also highlights a senseless regulation of the Denominación de Origen, which allows the use of a village name by the location of the winery – the building – and not the vineyards. Despite having full traceability of each vineyard parcel, Bideona cannot legally use village names on the labels. As a clever workaround, they have substituted all village names with acronyms that they have registered as brands. Thus, ‘Laguardia’ becomes L4GD4. This Tempranillo field blend comes from old vineyards planted at 1,400 feet above sea level overlooking the Ebro Valley. Ripening tends to be the earliest among Bideona’s villages and the wines are the most elegant and perfumed in the village wine series. Laguardia is also the most approachable and gastronomic wine in this series, due to its lighter, velvety tannins and juiciness on the palate.

The grapes were hand harvested in small crates and then manually sorted on a sorting table before being de-stemmed. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentations were carried out in stainless-steel tanks via a mix of indigenous yeast and a house cultured yeast strain. Gentle pump-overs were done to maximize personality without high extraction of color or tannins. The wine was pressed off the skins and was sent to a mix of stainless-steel, concrete, new oak, and used oak for 12 months of aging. It was bottled with a coarse filtration and very gentle sulfur addition. No fining.

Bodegas y Viñedos Valderiz is rooted in generations of vineyard work by the Esteban family in Roa, at the heart of Ribera del Duero. After years of cultivating vines first tended by their father, Tomás, and grandfather, brothers Juan and Ricardo Esteban transformed the family’s legacy into a modern winery. Founded in 1980 when Tomás dedicated himself fully to viticulture, the estate initially sold its grapes to other producers. By 1997, recognizing the exceptional quality of their fruit, the family began crafting and marketing their own wines. With a focus on drastically reducing yields to enhance character, Valderiz has built its reputation on meticulous vineyard care and a commitment to expressing the region’s terroir.

Primarily Tempranillo with a touch of Albillo for aromatic lift, this flagship wine spends two years in French oak (half new). Plush and velvety, it layers ripe baked cherry and espresso with hints of licorice, spice, and graphite. Concentrated yet balanced by fresh acidity, the fruit is framed by fine oak nuances, leading to a polished, enduring finish.

This wine’s tannins will balance beautifully with slow-cooked, melt-in-your-mouth meats.

Founded in 1974 by Valentino Migliorini, a Michelin-starred restaurateur with a visionary approach to winemaking, Rocche dei Manzoni quickly became a pioneer in the Langhe. Valentino introduced groundbreaking innovations such as the first Nebbiolo-Barbera blend (Bricco Manzoni), the use of small oak barrels, and traditional method sparkling wines—well ahead of his time. Today, under the direction of his son Rodolfo, the estate continues its legacy of experimentation and precision, producing acclaimed Barolo, innovative blends, and sparkling wines that showcase both tradition and forward-thinking spirit.

The Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia project began in 1998 with the purchase of this historic Monforte d’Alba vineyard. Under Rodolfo's careful stewardship and commitment to the sustainable Green Experience program, the estate crafts two Barolos of authentic character from this single site: Barolo Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia DOCG, first released in 2016 to critical acclaim, and Barolo Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia Riserva DOCG, produced only in exceptional vintages.

Rich and expansive on the nose, with layers of dried flowers, spice, wet earth, and dark chocolate. The palate is powerful yet refined, showing remarkable balance between depth and elegance. Velvety tannins and lively acidity carry the wine with grace, leading to a long, persistent finish that highlights its complexity and finesse - a true expression of Barolo Riserva at its finest.

A must have for every cellar - Expected storage lifetime 35/40 years.

The wines reflect both the character of each variety and its place of origin, blending the team’s expertise and meticulous approach with the growers’ deep connection to their land. By sourcing grapes from diverse plots and distinctive regions, Oenops Wines achieves fruit of outstanding quality and authenticity, remaining true to a shared passion for the vine and the earth.

Domaine du Bollenburg is an independent, family-run winery in the heart of Alsace, with roots dating back to 1887.

Situated on Bollenberg - the largest limestone hill in the canton of Rouffach - the vineyard spans 25 hectares, showcasing the unique terroir of the region. 

This Sylvaner opens with delicate botanical and mineral nuances, revealing aromas of dried chamomile, thyme leaves, and a subtle hint of blanched almonds. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied, with the grape’s naturally crisp acidity balanced by soft notes of beeswax and a touch of salty brine.

Stéphane Riffault, Claude Riffault's son, is turning out Sancerre bottlings that are the envy of many producers twice his age. Stéphane studied in Beaune and then learned with Olivier Leflaive in Burgundy. After his time in Burgundy, the vintner went to Bordeaux, where he stayed for some years at Château Angélus, and returned to Sancerre in 2001. When his father Claude retired, Stéphane took over the winery, and converted the vineyards to organic and biodynamic. He has become one of the most sought-after producers in the region.

Sourced from several plots all situated in the lieu-dit of Les Boucauds, this cuvée employs close to 50% of the Sauvignon Blanc planted on the estate. Entirely from terres blanches soils – marls and clays over Kimmeridgian limestone – this wine represents a pure expression of this site as well as the deft winemaking of Stéphane Riffault.

After a meticulous 10-month aging in oak barrels, it unveils an enchanting bouquet of ripe pear, succulent peach, delicate spring flowers, warming spices, and a hint of menthol. On the palate, bright acidity complements a luxurious texture, creating a perfect balance among its intricate flavours. The finish is long and ethereal, marked by a subtle saline note that invites you to savour another sip.

It can be enjoyed on its own or with shell-fish or fish dishes.

Hardy's constructed the Stonehaven Winery in 1998 with the purpose of showcasing the distinct qualities of the Limestone Coast region in Southern Australia. Following Hardy's acquisition by Constellation and subsequent brand expansion, the winery fell into dormancy after being sold. In early 2021, C.W. Wines acquired both the Stonehaven winery and brand, subsequently reintroducing the Stonehaven label to the market. Now sporting a revitalized appearance and market strategy, Stonehaven aims to appeal to contemporary wine enthusiasts, offering a wine selection suitable for any occasion.

The Limestone Coast enjoys plentiful access to water and cool evening temperatures, which remain low even as daytime temperatures rise. This diurnal shift is optimal for the gradual maturation of grapes, enhancing flavour development while maintaining acidity—a crucial factor in grape cultivation within such a warm climate.

A bold and fruit-forward wine characterized by plentiful black fruit flavours and a full, rounded palate. Its lingering notes reveal dark berry fruits, violet petals and spices with subtle oak, adding toasted nuances and a hint of brambly sweetness. With a captivating backdrop of exotic spices and subtle tannins, it enchants the palate through to its elegant finish.

Whether it's grilled sausages, burgers, or smoked brisket, Australian Shiraz complements the bold flavours and hearty textures of barbecue fare.

Creamy & Zesty

Husband and wife duo Ilya and Nadia started Leaning Post winery in Niagara over 10 years ago. Initially a virtual set up, the winery now located on Highway 8, has become a reference producer in Niagara.

The vintage allowed Chardonnay to ripen very slowly and evenly, gaining full flavour while keeping the balance of fresh crisp acidity. Immediately on the nose there is a wave of pineapple, lemon-curd, lime- leaf, and apricot pith, followed immediately by sea salt and wet-stone minerality. The palate brings beautiful richness but still balance with white peach, spice, and lemon-meringue mingling with crème fraiche, flint and roasted almond. The finish is silky smooth and exceptionally long but is eventually overtaken by wet-stone and crisp acidity. A truly beautiful example of Niagara Chardonnay!

Pair this wine with meaty fish like halibut or cod. Shellfish including lobster, shrimp, crab and scallops work stunningly with this Chardonnay.

A blend of fruit from 4 different vineyards from the best appellations across Niagara, the 2023 Pinot Noir is the epitome of the Leaning Post style. 2023 was a cool and elongated growing season, and yields were average, making wines of exceptional concentration and acidity. This wine combines classic “P(inot)- funk” flavours of cherry, mulberry, and raspberry with candy-cane beets, earth, leaves and stone. Made in a style that is slightly more approachable than our single-vineyard Pinots, it still shows incredible depth and complexity. The palate in particular shows good fullness and silkiness in the mouth with kirsch married to sugar beet wrapped in fresh basil smashed over limestones! Traces of spice lift the back end of the wonderfully long finish.  The 2023 needs a lot of air, so give it a good decant before
enjoying. This wine will age gracefully for 5-7 years.

Pair this Pinot Noir with smoky glazed ham or easy lentil curry.

Creamy & Zesty

Full and round with a core of acidity, this Chardonnay shows what can be done with this variety in Niagara. The nose highlights lemon curd and mandarin orange that is rounded by hazelnut and soft baking spices. The palate follows the direction of the nose with the lemon curd morphing into lemon meringue pie, and a strong wet stone/mineral base. This wine will age well over the next 8+ years. Drink with roasted turkey, hazelnut crusted halibut, and soft white cheeses. Cheers!

Cordero San Giorgio is a new beginning in Oltrépo-Pavese for three siblings who grew up surrounded by their family’s vines at the legendary Vietti Estate in Castiglione Falletto in Barolo. The siblings Francesco, Lorenzo, and Caterina Cordero, are grandchildren of Luciana Vietti & Alfredo Currado, one of the pioneers of the first Barolo crus and considered the “father of Arneis.” Their father is Mario Cordero, Alfredo and Luciana’s son-in-law, who was the company’s co-owner from the beginning of the ‘80s until 2016 when it was sold.

The Oltrepò Pavese is a hilly triangle of land in Lombardy, embraced by Piedmont, Liguria, and Emilia-Romagna. A territory dedicated to the cultivation of vines and the culture of wine for centuries: a land of both cultural and gastronomic encounter and exchange. Cordero San Giorgio is in the town of Santa Giuletta, and focuses on working with Pinot Nero, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay.

Tiamat is a Pinot Nero that is an expression of finesse. Elegant aromas and delicate on the palate.

Founded in 2012 by longtime industry veteran James Leary, Snapper Rock was inspired by long days spent fishing along New Zealand’s coastal waters and the easygoing moments that follow - good food, great company, and the glow of a setting sun.

Sourcing fruit from Marlborough in the South and Hawke’s Bay in the North, each bottle reflects the variety best suited to its terroir, offering exceptional quality at an unbeatable value.

This Pinot is silky-smooth and effortlessly elegant, opening with inviting aromas of dark plum, cherry, anise, and a touch of toasted nut, layered with a hint of earthy mushroom. The palate is supple and juicy, with vibrant fruit intensity balanced by a sleek texture and fine, integrated tannins. The finish is long, smooth, and satisfying. Approachable and expressive, it’s a beautifully made wine that overdelivers for the price.

Sip alongside seared tuna or hot smoked kahawai.

The 2020 vintage of our Merlot captures the essence of a warm year in the cool-climate terroir of the Niagara Lakeshore. This sub-appellation’s proximity to Lake Ontario tempers the summer heat, preserving fresh acidity and allowing the fruit to ripen slowly and evenly.

For pairing this Merlot, think: roast turkey, beef short rib, or a rustic ratatouille! For braised meat pairings, try complementing Merlot’s boisterous fruit notes with chimichurri sauce.

This is our first (and possibly only!?) vintage of Petit Verdot, with the majority of the fruit coming from Grimsby Hillside Vineyard. What an amazing cacophony of fruit and floral on the nose! Mulberry, plum and blackberry hit your senses immediately, followed quickly by lilac, lavender, violet and sage. The palate brings in blueberry and raspberry, with anise seed, sweet basil, cured meat, cocoa, cumin a mossy/brambly character the underpins the whole wine. It is medium bodied, with present acidity and tannins that are full but soft. This wine is perfectly balanced for warmer days and lighter fair in the summer, and yet full enough to match richer foods and cooler evenings. To drink now, either decant or enjoy slowly and allow the wine to unfold for you. 

Spiced & Round

Husband and wife duo Ilya and Nadia started Leaning Post winery in Niagara over 10 years ago. Initially a virtual set up, the winery now located on Highway 8, has become a reference producer in Niagara.

Cuvée Heritage is the third vintage of our flagship red blend, but the first called Heritage – in homage to Ilya & Nadia’s Ukrainian heritage, and with an intention of building a heritage of tremendous red blends at Leaning Post.
