Spicy & Tropical

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.

“Orange” wine (skin-fermented white) is an ancient technique for making wine and we continue to explore its potential. Harvested on September 30, 2022, the grapes were destemmed, into concrete tanks where it went through a spontaneous fermentation. It remained in concrete and aged on skins for 25 days, then it was gently pressed into clay amphora (35%) and stainless steel (65%) for aging. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulphite additions.

This Clockwork opens with vibrant aromas of elderflower honey, mandarin oranges, lemon curd, sweet Thai basil, and lemongrass. On the palate, it mirrors these notes while adding layers of honey, cream, and lemon, all carried by a rich, oily texture. A bright acidity, fine tannins, and a beautiful texture shape a dynamic finish that evolves as the wine warms. It pairs exceptionally well with briny or grilled seafood, such as oysters.

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.

Soft & Peppery

Stéphane Aviron can be considered a pioneer in his approach to winemaking in Beaujolais, however he would just tell you that he’s simply returning to the traditional practices that have always made fantastic Gamay wines. Sustainable viticulture, extremely old vines and classic Burgundian techniques.

The Morgon Côte du Py is Stéphane Aviron’s most structured, earthy wine, that is drinkable now and can age wonderfully for as much as ten years. The grapes are sourced from the slopes of an 1150-foot inactive volcano that is regarded as one of the top terroirs in all of Beaujolais. Vines face due south on a well-pitched hillside of volcanic soils with schist and blue stone.

The nose is refined and captivating, offering aromas of ripe berries layered with earthy and mineral undertones. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and balanced, showcasing vibrant crushed berry flavors that lead into a firm, well-defined finish. It pairs beautifully with red meats, hearty stews, French onion soup, soft cheeses, and dark chocolate.

Rich & Tannic

Fleurie is one of the top crus in Beaujolais producing wines of deep fruit and great structure. Stéphane Aviron’s Fleurie is sourced from a family owned hillside vineyard on the western side of the appellation, “La Mandone.” This famed vineyard features very steep slopes with granite soils that requires all work and harvesting to be done by hand. The vines here are very old, between 55 and 90 years in age. 

A true Burgundy in many ways. This Fleurie shows very similar characteristics to a fine Moulin à Vent with abundant ripe almost macerated fruit and rich, structured tannins. This is a truly age-worthy Beaujolais.
