Founded in 2005, Domaine de Bellene focuses on crafting wines from old vines with a commitment to sustainable, organic farming. Winemaker and proprietor Nicolas Potel's approach emphasizes producing wines that authentically reflect their origins and vintages, while preserving the land and culture for future generations. Under his leadership, Domaine de Bellene has earned respect among Burgundy enthusiasts, offering wines from both renowned and lesser-known appellations.

Planted in 1937, this plot lies in the heart of Suchots, adjacent to Romanée-Saint-Vivant, and has been organically farmed since joining the estate, with the soil maintained through horse plowing and sustainable practices. The nose reveals ripe, menthol-tinged aromas of black cherry liqueur, spice, and delicate notes of lavender. On the palate, the rich, focused flavours offer a seductive, mouth-filling texture balanced by the wine's firm, acidic backbone. The finish is powerful, dusty, and long, delivering impressive length.

Floral & Fruity

Lighthall Vineyards is a small, proud, low volume and high quality winery located in enchanting Prince Edward County, Ontario, Canada. All their wines are produced in a non-interventionist manner and fuelled by passion as hearty as our vines. They also make cheese, designed to pair with their wines.

Cool-climate Merlot at its best. This wine is loaded with all things blue and moody: damson plums, violet, fig, blue-acai, and chocolate-covered blueberry. Rich oak tones of vanilla, chocolate, and marshmallow balance out the fruit intensity and leave a long yet distinguished finish.

Fatty, high protein foods are recommended to bind with the high tannin and balance the acidity. Roasted leg of lamb with Saskatoon berry compote, coffee-rubbed steak, seared duck breast, creole jambalaya, pork loin with roasted plums, and blue cheeses all go
great.

Earthy & Peppery

Lighthall Vineyards is a small, proud, low volume and high quality winery located in enchanting Prince Edward County, Ontario, Canada. All their wines are produced in a non-interventionist manner and fuelled by passion as hearty as our vines. They also make cheese, designed to pair with their wines.

A cooler vintage brings freshness to one of the county’s best varieties. Strawberry, red currant, candied cherry, and a savoury garrigue all burst from the glass. Tones of sumac, cedar, bittersweet chocolate and cinnamon bark bring a discerning finish to this elegant grape. The classic pairing of seared duck breast and mushroom risotto are a must-have.

Classically, a pan seared or confit duck breast with black pepper and wild mushroom risotto is delightful. We also recommend blue cheeses, gruyere, taleggio, jollof with smoked mackerel, grilled pork butt chop with a sumac compote, black truffles, miso chicken, grilled salmon, or tuna sashimi.

Earthy & Silky

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.

Trousseau is by far the rarest grape variety in the Jura, planted in less than 8% of the total Jura vineyard, it has a biological relationship with the white grape Savagnin, being originally from this magical region. The vineyards are planted on rich red marl and gravel soils, along the Cotes du Jura appellation. On the nose, it has aromas of red fruits and leather, with a hint of sub-bois. Tannins are soft and silky, and the palate is very well-balanced.

Enjoy it on its own, or pair it with red meats such as game and venison.

Fresh & Juicy

Fabio Motta, originally from Lombardia, began his adventure as a winemaker in Bolgheri in 2010 when he was thirty years old. However, he first came to the area 10 years earlier when he ventured into the vineyards to take part in the grape harvest as a student of agronomy.
It was love at first sight in more ways than one; he fell in love with the territory and met his future wife, Benedetta Satta, daughter of Michele Satta, a vintner who has been part of Bolgheri’s history and progress over the years.

This Bolgheri blend of 50% Merlot, 25% Sangiovese, and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon is aged for 12 months in cement. Fabio Motta describes it as the wine that launched his winemaking journey, expressing everything he loves about Bolgheri: clear, juicy fruit, harmony, and effortless drinkability. Merlot brings softness and volume, Cabernet Sauvignon adds structure, while the Sangiovese contributes freshness and complexity. Lighter and fresher than expected for the region, it shows silky tannins and aromas of cooked cherry, blackberry jam, mint, and rosemary.

Pair with typical Italian fare - Le Pievi shines next to pizza, light meats and pasta.

Ophir Bridge is the secondary label from McArthur Ridge in Central Otago’s Alexandra Valley, a region shaped by old vines rooted in the late 1800s and nourished by pure glacial-fed water. Planted across gentle northern slopes on an elevated plateau, the vines flourish in the warmth of the Central Otago sun. Brassknocker soils and pristine waters give the wines a true sense of place, reflecting the region’s distinctive character with elegance and depth.

This wine shows an expressive, refined nose of red cherries, raspberries, and cranberries, lifted by violet florals and a hint of clove spice. Medium-bodied on the palate, it offers soft tannins and well-integrated acidity, with juicy red fruit, subtle oak, and gentle earthy notes. The finish is long and elegant, leaving lingering impressions of fruit and spice.

Perfect with duck or herb-crusted chicken.

Sourced from the high-elevation Secrest Vineyard, where complex soils and constant breezes encourage slow, even ripening at lower sugar levels, this site naturally yields more delicate, finely detailed wines. Full sun exposure and airflow help minimize disease pressure, supporting low-intervention, sustainable farming.

In the glass, the wine opens with elegant aromas of cherry licorice, dried rose petals, blood orange, and pine mushroom. The palate is silky and precise, framed by chalky tannins and bright acidity that lend lift and clarity. A quiet tension carries through to a long, focused finish, leaving a lasting impression of restraint, finesse, and place—Pinot Noir defined by poise and quiet confidence.

Garage Wine Co. was quite literally born in a garage in 2001, founded by Etobicoke expat Derek Mossman and his wife, Pilar Miranda. Since then, the dynamic duo has focused on reviving old vineyards in underrepresented Chilean communities, primarily in the Maule and Itata regions, crafting wines that have become highly sought after.

Operating in Chile’s Secano Interior, Garage Wine Co. works far from the mainstream spotlight on branded varietals. For decades, many old vineyards here were neglected and often relegated to bulk wine production. Over the past ten years, GWCo. has breathed new life into these vines, blending the traditional fieldcraft of small-scale farmers with modern science and careful winemaking. The results have been transformative - enhancing vineyard health, elevating fruit quality, and creating meaningful opportunities for local growers.

Sometimes, in a blend, a particular barrel stands apart - delicious, yet too firm and unready to join the others. These barrels are set aside in the back of the cellar, given an extra one to two winters to mellow and find their harmony. Once ready, they are incorporated into this Solera, a collection of carefully preserved “odds and ends” rounded and refined with age over many years.

Deep ruby in colour, it offers intense, spice-accented aromas of red and blackcurrant, complemented by notes of pipe tobacco and savoury herbs. The palate shows notable evolution and polished character, with just enough structure to carry the flavours through a gentle, smoky, and lingering finish. This wine is beautifully integrated and ready to drink.

Sister’s Run is serious fun and serious wine. The talented, young winemaker Elena Brooks (of Dandelion Vineyards and Heirloom Vineyards fame) wears steel cap work boots every day of course, but carries a pair of high heels in back of the ute for emergencies - like last minute invitations to accept trophies at gala wine show dinners and the like! 

A classic Old World blend displaying lively primary aromatics, layered with subtle notes of fennel and tar that add lift and complexity. The palate is superbly balanced, with each varietal complementing the other to achieve both roundness and definition. Grenache leads with vibrant fruit, followed by the gentle pepper spice of Shiraz, all supported by the firm structure of Mourvèdre. The finish lingers gracefully with a hint of sweet oak spice.

Try this versatile red with equally expressive cuisines like curry pork burgers dressed with spicy ketchup or a rich cassoulet.
