A family owned estate of 162 hectares with vineyards, Mediterranean forest, almond and olive trees all with a unique terroir: altitude at 650-700 meters above sea level, dry agriculture, extremely calcareous soil, a Mediterranean climatology with a strong continental influence and vines of 40+ year old vines of native grape, Monastrell.

Casa Los Frailes (“Cals Frares” in old Valencian) takes it's name from the Jesuit Friars who used to live in the Estate two centuries ago (XVII to XVIII). Since then, Casa Los Frailes belongs to the Velázquez family, currently in its 13th generation. Casa Los Frailes was certified organic in 2000, being one of the very first wineries in Spain to do so.

1771 Casa Los Frailes is made with the oldest bush vines on the estate - 75 year-old Monastrell. 1771 is the year that the Velasquez ancestors purchased the estate at public auction from King Charles III of Spain who in turn had expropriated it from the Friars. The label is a reproduction of the original contract that was signed.

One of a trio of winemaking estates that the three Aubert brothers have overseen since the 1980’s, carrying forward and further developing the foundation and traditions begun by their father. 150 hectares of this property was originally established by Algerian immigrants, who again left France for a time. On returning, they found the now mature plantings ready to bear fruit–providing the inspiration for the Domaine’s name, ‘the major return.’

Smooth and sumptuous, this wine exudes savoury and juicy dark fruits notes with layers of peppery spice following through.

Pair this wine with roasted poultry, duck, game birds, roasted lamb, lamb burgers or sharp flavoured, hard cheeses

Fresne-Ducret is rich in family history and has been rooted in the premier cru village of Villedommange since the mid 1800s.

This vintage Champagne is perfect representation of the Fresne Ducret style, balancing freshness and aromatic complexity. It is crystalline with a pale golden colour. Good effervescence that continues long after opening. The nose is fresh, dominated by floral notes with hints of citrus. In the mouth, a savoury dimension with a balanced astringency, with aromas of orange zest and honey. The wine is lively, dynamic, and moreish, a vintage still in its youth.

Serve with goat cheese, small game, or rhubarb millefeuille.

Meyer Family Vineyards have been crafting wines in the Okanagan Valley since 2006. Voted one of the top wineries in Canada, they focus on small lot productions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir drawing heavily from Burgundian influences.

This is classy chardonnay from Jak Meyer; whose wines have been turning heads for quite a few years now, especially those of the judges at the WineAlign National Wine Awards. The 2018 McLean Creek bottling from Okanagan Falls is beautifully bright and appealingly spartan, with minimal oak and lees influence in favour of bright citrus, peach and apple blossom flavours. But it's really the palate that shines with its taut acids and laser sharp delineation, not to mention the impressively lingering finish.

Top notch, and top value, classy wine. Pair this Chardonnay with any chicken dish, baked, grilled, or fried. It would also pair nicely with seafood.

Meyer Family Vineyards have been crafting wines in the Okanagan Valley since 2006. Voted one of the top wineries in Canada, they focus on small lot productions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir drawing heavily from Burgundian influences. This is from Meyer's Old Main Road vineyard in Naramata.

Each year the Tribute Chardonnay honours a Canadian cultural figure, in 2018 modernist painter Gordon Applebe Smith. The Old Main chardonnay always strikes a riper, richer note and no change here even in the cooler vintage. The nose billows with ripe peach fruit, peat, spice and vanilla from French oak. It has sense of fullness but the 2018 acidity runs neatly through to the end. Excellent length.

Pair it with any chicken dish, baked, grilled, or fried. It would also pair nicely with seafood.
