Blank Canvas Reed Chardonnay Marlborough 2019
$44.95 / bottle
Release Date December 2, 2021
Vintages #: 20183
750ml bottle
Complex & Savoury

Blank Canvas is the personal wine range of husband and wife team, Matt Thomson and Sophie Parker-Thomson, MW. With a focus on Marlborough, Syrah from Hawkes Bay and Pinot Noir from Central Otago, the Blank Canvas wines are exciting, small-batch and increasingly recognised as the avant-garde of New Zealand wine.

An incredibly textured, savoury wine. It parades a bounty of fleshy white nectarine and orchard fruit, flint-focused precision and a grainy, honeyed richness. Its vividly sketched acidity allows it to carry the powerful but savoury oak in a defined yet impressive manner. The full solids fermentation with 100% wild yeast and 14 months lees ageing without battonage has given multitudinous layers of complexity. This is a wine for drinking now for its crystalline purity, or cellaring and reaping the benefits of tertiary development in many years to come.

With its citrus and hints of white pepper, this wine is a beautiful dish with ceviche, any grilled white fish or chicken infused with orange or paired with an orange and almond salad.

This product is part of the LCBO Classics Catalogue. It will take approximately 3-4 weeks to be delivered from its release date.

Invivo Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough 2020
$19.95 / bottle
Release Date November 27, 2020
Vintages #: 14199
750ml bottle
Aromatic & Flavourful

For winemaker and co-founder Rob Cameron, the Invivo range is all about taking some of the elegance from the old world and putting that style into our amazing grapes, all the while offering wines that are fun and a bit unique.

Tropically scented but with layers of sweet capsicum and floral lime zest rising from the glass initially. This is well backed up by a vibrant, zingy fresh palate with deceptive power and concentration. There is a creaminess to the palate from time on lees that adds a textural dimension, which is in great balance with the driving tropical fruit. This is a Sauvignon Blanc for Sauvignon Blanc lovers.

This product is part of the LCBO Vintages program. It may take approximately 3-4 weeks to be delivered.

About the Winery

Blank Canvas

Blank Canvas is the personal wine range of husband and wife team, Matt Thomson and Sophie Parker-Thomson.

Having completed over fifty back-to-back vintages in both New Zealand and Europe as an award-winning winemaking consultant, Matt together with Sophie felt it was time to create and build a wine brand together, with their first vintage in 2013. Blank Canvas embodies their own expression of art-meets-science with single-vineyard, small batch wines that push the sensory boundaries and challenge winemaking orthodoxy.

Winemaker Matt Thomson’s science background defines the parameters of his winemaking canvas, allowing creativity to flow within those bounds. Together with business partner, Master of Wine student and wife Sophie Parker-Thomson, Matt is striving to achieve the unique winemaking fusion between art and science, pushing the boundaries to capture a unique expression.

Sophie recently obtained her Master of Wine title,  joining 149 women MWs globally with the total number of MWs in the world now 418 in 32 countries.

The Real Review

95 points - Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review

Impressive purity and power with peach, nectarine fruit flavours together with a subtle struck-flint mineral, reductive character and a pleasing savoury note. A taut, elegant chardonnay that’s good now but promises to get even better with bottle age.

Cameron Douglas, MS

Sophisticated and complex bouquet of Chardonnay with aromas of gun flint and oak spices, moments of lemon and grapefruit then yellow fleshed orchard fruit. The second and third sniffs reveal a mineral, stone and textured complexity. The bouquet overall is very youthful and vibrant with the messages of oak strong. On the palate equally expressive, youthful and complex. Flavours reflect the nose with citrus then oak. Fine wood tannins with a smoky edge, medium+ acidity and palate trill. While this wine is very young it has fantastic potential that Chardonnay fans should invest in and cellar some bottles. Best drinking from early 2022 through 2026+

Fermented in 40% new French oak puncheons, the 2019 Reed Chardonnay is strongly marked by the process and subsequent 14-month élevage, with scents of toasted grain and nuts prominent on the nose. In the mouth, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with its lemony fruit character doing a fine job supporting the wood-derived notes. There's a sense of creamy generosity leading into a harmonious, refreshing finish that deftly marries elements of oak and fruit.

It's intensely expressed and instantly appealing on the nose showing rockmelon, fresh fig, grapefruit and lemon zest aromas, leading to a powerful palate that's filled with delicious youthful flavours. The wine offers terrific fruit purity and vibrancy, finishing long and satisfying. At its best: now 2023.

This is a lovely, calm but not at all boring Kiwi sauvignon. Really like the balance and structure which is firm without being rigid, and generous without being obvious. There is a whiff of sulphur in the background but not distracting from the melange of savoury greens - fresh dill, celery leaf, zucchini, green pepper and green pear fruit. It is medium weight, rich yet lively, with a hint of sweetness. Flavour intensity, acuity and length is excellent. Tasted January 2021

My TOP BUY white of the release! Here is a truly delicious, ripe, fruit-driven, Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc that’s loaded with fresh acidity - a versatile, crowd-pleasing oyster wine if there ever was one. Extremely pale straw colour. Attractive, spicy, very gently grassy nose with lots of intense, ripe, fresh grapefruit and apple-melon puree fruit along with a touch of minerality. Dry medium-light bodied, tangy, lifted, fresh, grass-tinged, very attractive, ripe grapefruit flavours with some lemon-lime-apple-rhubarb notes along with a lingering, crisp, unoaked, mineral-tinged finish.
