Mineral & Creamy

The Baud estate dates back to 1742, today the 9th generation manages the winery. Siblings Clementine and Bastien, both under 30, are making some of the best value wines in the area. Jura is that narrow valley in the remote hills between Burgundy and Switzerland, which millions of years ago was covered by an Ocean and today still bares many of the fossils from that time. If you kick a stone in a Jura vineyard, it will probably be a fossil.

Seven generations of savoir-faire are behind this Crémant du Jura as seductive as it is thirst-quenching. The Crémant « Brut Sauvage » is Baud's top sparking wine. Its profile is marked by ripe apple, marzipan, and toast, thanks to a blend of Chardonnay (70%) and Pinot Noir (30%) aged at least 24 months on lees. True to its reputation, it will charm your palate with its delicate and elegant bubbles, leaving behind chalky and slightly saline notes.

This sparkling is perfect to enjoy on its own; or to pair with fried tempura or chicken.

Nicolas Potel is an iconic producer in Burgundy. He grew up in a family dedicated entirely to wine; and after gaining some experience internationally, he started his own project in the late 90's.

Founded in 2009, Maison Roche de Bellene offers a complete range of wines, with an emphasis on individual terroirs from vieilles vignes (old vines - 40 years or older) that are farmed responsibly. All of the growers that Nicolas Potel works with are either organic certified or farming according to the principles of lutte raisonée (“sustainable viticulture”). This enables Potel to consistently produce the expressive, terroir-driven style that is his vision.

Sourced from a 45-year-old parcel with small yields, this wine delivers a lot of classic White Burgundy character -- white flowers, stone fruits, moist earth -- at a very fair price.

A nice option for pairing with grilled chicken, grilled trout, fresh crab or eggplant fritters.

Mineral & Textured

Scribe Winery in Sonoma, Calif. produces vibrant, terroir-driven wines. The winery– founded in 2007 on a property that pioneered pre-prohibition Sonoma Valley winemaking– is managed by fourth-generation California farmers and brothers, Andrew and Adam Mariani.

Like many of Scribe's wines, the Skin Fermented Chardonnay started as an experiment. When one of their Chardonnay clones were not cooperating with the others in the blending process, they isolated them and tried something slightly different. Fermented on the skins for 101 days in concrete, this traditional (and resurgent) winemaking process adds the necessary colour, texture and structure to create a delicate balance against the clone's pronounced floral and tropical fruit notes. The result is an expressive golden-hued wine, with a stony grip and herbal texture to the fine, bright and precise citrus and green apple fruit, in a shorter 500 ml bottle, that has earned its place as a staple, annual Scribe release. Not your average California Chardonnay but one not to be missed! 

Enjoy with Morrocan inspired dishes.

Fresh & Balanced

Ludon en Médoc 2006 (Bordeaux, France)

It shows aromas of dark plum, cassis, leather and spice on the nose; while the palate follows with good tannic structure, plush fruit and smooth finish.

Pairing suggestion: Try this wine with a cheese board, and don't forget about the blue cheese. The saltiness of the cheese versus the flavour of the wine is an exceptional pairing.

Toasty & Citrusy

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 Chardonnay in this wine comes from a beautiful old vines (35+ years old) block, while the Pinot Noir is from a younger block on the same property in Beamsville Bench.

The base wine was fermented and aged on lees in barrel for 6 months. Made using the traditional method, the second fermentation happened in bottle followed by aging on lees for 28 months. It was disgorged on August 19th, 2020 with no dosage added. The nose immediately shows beautiful toasty/biscuit and lemon-curd, with a background of peach and flowers. The palate is full and round, with a very fine mousse showing fresh-baked bread, lemon meringue, apricot-pith and a hint of hazelnut. The terroir and old-vines really come through on the finish with an amazing mineral/flinty core and very present acidity.

Enjoy now, but this wine will age gracefully over the next 8+ years if you want it to. Drink with fresh Malpeque oysters, hazelnut crusted halibut, and soft white cheeses.
