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.

This wine is made from old vines with an average age of 48 years. They deliver a classic, pure expression of Chardonnay, fresh and lifted with ripe citrus, apple, toast and a creamy texture. The refined mineral note adds precise Burgundian elegance.

A nice option for pairing with grilled chicken or fish cakes.

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.

A to Z Wineworks was started in 2002 by Oregon wine industry veterans: Deb Hatcher (Eyrie), Bill Hatcher (Domaine Drouhin Oregon), Sam Tannahill (Archery Summit) and Cheryl Francis (Chehalem). The two couples worked in the Hatcher's kitchen to build the original blend honoured by Food & Wine magazine as the Best American Pinot Noir under $20. Recognition for A to Z wines as offering dependable quality for great value continues today making A to Z the top-selling Oregon wine brand.

The delicately coloured A to Z Oregon Chardonnay has a fresh, lively nose like fresh cut apples and distinct tropical notes (honeydew, kiwi, quince, kumquat, Meyer lemon, pineapple) and undertones of spring flowers, lemongrass and marjoram. The juicy, vibrant palate has a touch of minerality, something like wet stones drizzled with honey, and a natural fruit sweetness building length and presence. Tank aging on lees gives this wine a creamy texture and an interesting, broad mid-palate.

Pairs well with fresh, vibrant, and lively foods that sparkle with acidity like Baja fish tacos or heavier foods that need a bit of a high note lift such as roasted monkfish and trout.

Winemaker Alex Russell’s journey into the world of fermentation began with humble beginnings. Starting at a young age making home-brewed beverages, his interests eventually led him to formal education, where he studied the exciting world of Viticulture and Wine Science. After spending time cutting his teeth in the Australian wine industry, he began developing his own projects. Alex’s obsession with quality and sustainability are unwavering. Nowhere is this more evident than with the release of his newest range of wines under the Russell & Suitor banner.

Inspired by the idyllic and pristine terroir of Tasmania, and the new opportunities such a climate presents, Alex has eagerly begun crafting elegant wines with familiar confidence and the gentle hand required for cool-climate winemaking.

 This Tasmanian Chardonnay shows citrusy aromas with green apple and orchard fruits  lightly tossed in toasted sweet spices. Bright acidity cuts through the creamy texture on the palate, striking an elegant balance between the soft texture and aromatic profile of the fruit and new French oak. A beautifully crafted wine with an exquisite cool-climate profile. 

 Serve with pan roasted chicken breast and seasonal roasted veggies.

The Moreau family has been settled in the heart of Chablis since 1884. Louis Moreau, the sixth generation, studied oenology and viticulture in California and took over from his father when he returned to France in 1994. Nowadays, the domaine's vineyards extend all over the four levels of the appellation: Petit Chablis, Chablis, Premier Cru and Grand Cru.

Chablis Les Vaillons 1er Cru is one of the largest Chablis premier crus. It sits in a side valley on the left bank of the Serein and has a southeastern exposure: this means full morning sun and cools in the evening that help to preserve freshness. Moreau's vineyards are in the climats Roncières, Sécher, and Chatains.

This is a generous, fleshy and lively wine that displays a beautiful balance of minerality, fruitiness and elegance. This wine develops delicate aromas on the nose with notes of white fruit. The mouth is rich and complex, with undergrowth aromas and a distinct vivacity that is so typical of the climat. The old vines give to the wine roundness & elegance.

The Premier Cru Vaillons will pair nicely with seared foie-gras, or a roasted chicken with morels.

Baettig is the family project of winemaker Francisco "Pancho" Baettig (Errázuriz) and Carlos de Carlos in Traiguén, some 600 kilometers south of Chile. They planted 15.4 hectares of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir on volcanic soils in 2013 and the first wines are hitting the Ontario market for the first time now.

This Selección de Parcelas Los Primos was made with Chardonnay grapes grown in Malleco, in the appellation of Traiguén. Malleco is a land of wild forests, beautiful lakes, active volcanoes and abundant rain in the southern Chilean region of La Araucanía. The ancient volcanic soils of this area are composed of pyroclastic volcanic breccia of andesite lava, with clay to loam texture. The abundant rainfall throughout the year allows Baettig to practice a dry-farming viticulture.

The grapes comes from a selection of the Triángulo and Llaima parcels, which deliver vertical and mineral wines with good tension. The name Los Primos (the cousins) refers to the closeness of style and quality of the vineyard parcels that give rise to this wine.

The grapes were harvested during the first two weeks of April, and pressed with whole cluster. The juice fermented in barrels with native yeasts, and was aged for 16 months in French oak barrels—38% in new 400L casks.

Bright yellow colour. Aromatic and highly complex with notes of pear, nougat,
acacia, apricot, honey, wax and hints of dried fruits such as walnuts, hazelnuts
and cashew. It is deep and full in mouth with a creamy texture and notes of
apple, passion fruit, honey, hay and spices. The body and density are
harmoniously balanced by the acidity, giving a deep, fresh, lively and tense wine,
with a long finish and great aging potential.

Baettig is the family project of winemaker Francisco "Pancho" Baettig (Errázuriz) and Carlos de Carlos in Traiguén, some 600 kilometers south of Chile. They planted 15.4 hectares of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir on volcanic soils in 2013 and the first wines are hitting the Ontario market for the first time now.

These wines come from from a combination of parcels at Viñedo Los Suizos that deliver lively and juicy wines with tremendous fruit intensity. Los Parientes (the relatives) refers to the closeness of the different components within the same vineyard.

This Vino de Viñedo "Los Parientes" was made with Chardonnay grapes grown in Malleco, in the appellation of Traiguén. Malleco is a land of wild forests, beautiful lakes, active volcanoes and abundant rain in the southern Chilean region of La Araucanía. The ancient volcanic soils of this area are composed of pyroclastic volcanic breccia of andesite lava, with clay to loam texture. The abundant rainfall throughout the year allows Baettig to practice a dry-farming viticulture.

The grapes were harvested during the first two weeks of April, and pressed with whole cluster. The juice fermented in barrels with native yeasts, and was aged for 10 months in French oak barrels—10% in new 400L casks.

The nose is austere, pure and elegant with citrus aromas of orange blossom, lime and lemon peel, with faint notes of linden, verbena, pear and dried fruits such as almonds and walnuts. In the mouth, its mineral notes and tension stand out. It is a linear wine with vibrant acidity and a dry, long and mineral finish.

Nowadays, the domaine's vineyards extend all over the four levels of the appellation: Petit Chablis, Chablis, Premier Cru and Grand Cru.

The name "Vau Ligneau" translates as 'valley of the little brook', and this premier cru vineyard sits in a side valley on the left bank of the Serein. It has a higher proportion of clay than other premier crus, something that gives the wine a rounder profile. Its North-East exposure enhances its minerality & richness drawn from its calcareous and clay subsoil.

This wine has a classic Chablis character, with an elegant minerality and a rich, full palate. Hints of mint and pineapple on the nose, and a long finish. This 1er Cru Vau Ligneau is perfect to serve with seafood, especially with oysters or lobster in butter sauce.

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.

There’s nothing subtle in this bottle - just bountiful, beautiful pineapples and lemons from sunny Gisborne. This Chardonnay is big, bold and bursting with ripe fruit with just a hint of creamy, toasty oak. It's instantly appealing and will go well with your closest friends. And if they don’t love it as much as you do, they probably weren’t your
friends anyway (told you this wasn't subtle).

Pair with sunny days, cream based soups or sauces or go all out and serve with butter poached lobster on a bed of creamy risotto.
