MORE ABOUT THE WINES 🥂
NV Piper-Heidsieck Rosé Sauvage, Champagne
Rosé Sauvage is a rosé like few others to be found in Champagne. An unusually large proportion of red wines give this Rosé champagne its unique personality. A cuvée particularly daring with a deep ruby color and a unique structure. Rosé Sauvage is a perfect table champagne and will pair wonderfully with a Sunday barbecue in the country. Its dazzling appearance brings to mind a shiny ruby; deep scarlet in color - almost poppy red. Intense aromas of dark berry fruits - imagine blackberry, blackcurrant and strawberry - with mandarin orange and traces of saffron. Juicy berry fruits in the middle-palate, spiced and smoked notes in its stunning finale, this champagne is a mischievous delight.
2008 Rare Champagne - Rare Millésime
“Rare” is appropriately named, as only twelve vintages of Rare Champagne have been created in the last 4 decades: 1976, 1979, 1985, 1988, 1990, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2006, Rare Rosé Millésime 2007 and 2008
THE 2008 VINTAGE!
True to the Rare Champagne signature, Rare Millésime 2008 holds unlimited potential for growth, youth and complexity. Rare Millésime 2008 imparts the fervour of an infinite spring
ON THE NOSE: INFINITELY FLORAL AND MINERAL
The initial nose shines by the pure vivacity of this vintage. As Rare Millésime 2008 gradually warms in the glass, a vast range of orange blossom, hyacinth and white flowers is released. This leads to the delicacy of vanilla blossoms, a touch of fresh coconut, aromas of just ripe Williams pear and fresh almond, enhanced by notes of tangerine and blackcurrant buds. The second nose reveals the saline minerality, abundant and refined, an iodine-smoky harmony and a touch of liquorice.
ON THE PALATE: SPRINGLIKE AND PRECISE
On the palate the crispy, precise attack is followed by exuberant aromas of fresh pineapple, freshly cut and crisp, passion fruit, kiwi and coconut, nuanced with tangy citrus notes. These combine with plush spring-like flavours with unparalleled length. The finish, with remarkable saline and iodine notes, perpetuates the journey into an endless spring.

MORE ABOUT THE WINES 🥂
Hannah Decanted McIntyre Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir, SLH, CA
Both packages include this wine!
Hannah and I have been friends for a few years now, and our wine paths have crossed many times. She is indeed one lovely human, and also one heckova winemaker! Much like its creator, this wine is not shy. It's got personality, balance and grace, expertly crafted and from a great vineyard in the SLH region. NB: The beautiful label was created especially for Hannah by a local Alaskan artist, Shilo Cederberg.
The Vineyard - McIntyre Estate Vineyard, within Monterey County’s Santa Lucia Highlands AVA, is in a most desirable location of the AVA. Perfectly positioned to produce great Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Originally planted in 1973, the 80-acre site (60 acres planted) boasts some of the Highlands’ oldest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines.
Champagne Option:
The ‘Because I Deserve It’ Package includes:
Charles Heidsieck - NV Champagne Brut Reserve
To this day, Heidsieck is one of the most respected Houses in Champagne and it was also the Champagne served on the Titanic. Thanks to 40% of reserve wines, the blend offers a complex, elegant, voluptuous nose with a touch of freshly baked brioche, rich toasted notes and sun-drenched fruits - mango, apricot and mirabelle plum - accented by dried fruits, pistachio and almond. On the palate the texture is reminiscent of a crisp layer of nougatine on a velvety cream pastry, filled with plump red plums and ripe cherries. The selection of reserve wines gives the wine lushness. The finish unveils notes of praline and vanilla.
We’ve also created a Boujee on a Budget option that includes a bottle of my favourite Crémant d’Alsace! Crémant = When your heart screams CHAMPAGNE but your pocketbook says Easy Tiger…

The range of their good vintages is divided, as is often the case in the region, into Vins de Tradition, dedicated to the 7 Alsatian grape varieties and Vins de Prestige, made from plots selected at harvest when the vintage allows it. The Prestige range includes Pinot Noir aged in barrels, Pinot Gris and Riesling from the Grand Cru Winzenberg Vineyard. Pierre Meyer also makes delicious Crémant d’Alsace Blanc and Rosé Brut following the Methode Champenoise. Converted in Biodynamie since 2019, the wines really express the quality of the terroir and their varietal.

Sometimes we just don’t want another bottle of
The Usual… Am I Right?!
Grechetto – Furmint – Roussanne
Unfamiliar with some/all? I was hoping you’d say that…
Grechetto - Not just any Grechetto… A GREAT Grechetto!
Mottura Grechetto di Civitella d'Agliano, Latour a Civitella, IT
Get your Caccio e Pepe ready and we’re off! Meet the clean and crisp Italian of your dreams. Why from your dreams? Because it’s not juuuust clean ‘n crisp, it’s also got a little body and zing that make pairing with Italian dishes, like the one I mentioned above, even easier. Who doesn’t want to make life easier…
Furmint – A heavenly dry white wine from a truly amazing nation.
Erzsebet Pince - 2016 Furmint and Kabar Tokaj Dry, Tokaj, Hungary
The grape would probably more popular if Hungary didn’t have bigger priorities for the last 500 years than global marketing of their amazing juice, but I guarantee their wines are world-class and Erzsebet Pince (winery) is top. Hungarian for Elizabeth, Erzsebet is also the first female winemaker in Hungary and possibly the world. Dry Furmint Rocks. Write that down. Sometimes they’re aged in stainless steel, and sometimes they spend time in oak (like this one) making it dare-I-say burgundy-esque… A thing of beauty.
Roussanne – Oh glorious Roussanne… A red wine-lover’s white wine
Stolpman Vineyards Roussanne, Santa Barbara, CA
A truly special gem from one truly special winery. The Stolpmans aren’t just great with wine, and stubborn as hell to be working with a grape like Roussanne (bless them for doing it for us), they’re also great people doing taking great care of all those in they’re wine family. Everyone is a full-time employee with benefits and they make a non-profit wine (also delicious) who’s profits go 100% back to the winery’s crew. “Aromas of Asian pear and honeysuckle sprinkled with citrus tell the tale of a rich, indulgent Roussanne ready to coat the palette in full-bodied splendor. While opulence carries the day, complimentary notes of lychee, lemongrass, and jasmine bring a more delicate prettiness.”
When is it not the season for rosé?!
Exactly.
Argali Rosé - A true French delights… Merci!
Puech-Haut Argali Rosé, IGP D’OC, FR
Quite familiar with Puech-Haut’s Tête de Biliers Rosé, one of the best French rosés I know, I was excited to try and subsequently adore another of Puech-Haut’s rosés. Pale pink in color with a fresh nose of exotic fruits. The palate is fresh and crispy. It is a thirst-quenching rose perfect for apéritif, grilled fishes and salads.
Grape Variety: 60% Grenache, 40% Cinsault
Wade Rosé - Black-Owned and a delightful rosé.
Wade Cellars - Three By Wade Rosé
Light in color, honeysuckle and strawberries explodes from the glass. It’s fresh, vibrant, bright and full of verve. There's loads of red fruit and mouthwatering acidity. Enough to make you ditch your pina colada and beg for another glass of Three by Wade. Pair with prosciutto wrapped melon, grilled fish or pool toys… Your call 🏖
Talisman - All pinot, all the time, especially the rosé
Talisman Winery Rosé of Pinot Noir, North Coast, CA
A very exclusive offering from Talisman, normally only sold at the Tasting Room itself… And we have access to a small amount of it! It’s a rosé that doesn’t hold back it’s punches and a favourite of mine since they started making it. Marta and Scott, I have to say are pretty darn amazing at winemaking, and about 5 years ago, Scott finally made a rosé… And oh my… Thank you Scott is all I have to say…
Rosé doesn’t have to sit still and behave…
NV La Caravelle, Brut Rosé Champagne, France
Paying homage to legendary NYC French fine dining restaurant La Caravelle, which Rita and André Jammet owned. La Caravelle, hand chosen by Rita and André, reflects the classic roots and contemporary sensibility of the brand. La Caravelle Brut Rose is beautiful.

FANTASTIC WINES FROM 3 GREAT BLACK-OWNED WINERIES ❤️
MAISON NOIR WINES "LOVE DRUNK" Rosé
Provocative aromas of strawberry and raspberry, followed by refreshing flavors of wild strawberry, watermelon rind, and a hint of kiwi.
Wade Cellars Chenin Blanc
Probably the best domestic Chenin blanc I’ve ever tried. It’s really clean and balanced with body and also nice acid.
L’Objet Noir
Not only is the winamaker/owner Dan Glover hilariously funny, he’s also a fantastic winemaker! A really great Pinot Noir out of Sonoma.
Brown Estate Chaos Theory
Brown Estate has enjoyed a wonderful reputation for quality wines out of Napa for years and this Zinfandel-Based Blend is no exception.
FANTASTIC WINES FROM 3 GREAT BLACK-OWNED WINERIES ❤️
Talisman Winery - 2021 Rosé of Pinot Noir, North Coast - $28
A very exclusive offering from Talisman, normally only sold at the Tasting Room itself… And we have access to a small amount of it! It’s a rosé that doesn’t hold back it’s punches and a favourite of mine since they started making it. About 5 years ago, Scott finally made a rosé… And oh my. The first bottle I tried was only slightly chilled (mostly because I couldn’t wait for it to chill down for me to try it) and when I tasted it for the first time, I closed my eyes and really thought I was drinking a Talisman Pinot. It’s amazing how my senses fooled me that day… And I’ve been hooked on this rosé ever since! It’s bold and not boring at all. Yes it’s still a rosé and beautifully balanced. If you’ve sat outside with me at my house, you’ve probably had it.
Talisman Winery - 2016 Sadie's Vineyard Pinot Noir, Sonoma - $52
Sadie’s vineyard is one of only 2 vineyards in Russian River that Marta and Scott source their fruit from, and both are quite different. It’s a beautiful representation of a really fabulous vineyard (named after a most adorable dog) with bright red fruit and stunning complexity, gritty with an amazingly pleasant finish. It’s one of my go-tos for sure… If I like my guests 😉 It’s also a wine found only at the tasting room(!)… But I “know a guy” lol. Hugs Marta and Scott! Thank you for always including me on your journey and I can’t wait until our next get together.
Celebrate all things 2021 with my favourite Champagne 🍾
NV Champagne Brut Reserve & Brut Rosé Reserve
If you didn’t think that a wine and its story could both truly knock your socks off, get ready!! It was Americans that gave him his now infamous nickname “Champagne Charlie”. It was even Charles Heidsieck Champagne that was served on the famous Titanic in 1855 🛳 🍾
To this day, Heidsieck is one of the most respected Houses in Champagne.
No day is so bad that it can’t be fixed with Champagne 🍾

THE WINES 🥂:
Azimut Brut Nature NV
This is a great cava from one of the best regions of and from a producer that likes to show a little personality. This is a great apertif, vibrant and just the right texture of bubbles to encourage another glass. A blend of the classic varietals for cava; Macabeo, Xarel-lo and Paralleda, this wine is 100% organic and 100% delightful.
Naveran Brut Vintage Reserva
“This grower Cava is made from 100% estate grown, organically farmed fruit with extended lees aging far beyond the minimum requirements for the Cava DO. Made by the Naveran family since 1901. This winery has a tradition of crafting Cavas that are superb expressions of clean, bright, citrus-inflected aromas and flavors with beautiful texture and weight from the extended lees contact, designed to stand up among the great sparkling wines of the world.”
Parés Baltà Blanca Cusiné 2012 Gran Reserva
Blanca Cusiné was crafted as a tribute to the women of Parés Baltà and more specifically their youngest daughter Blanca, whom was born the same year as the first vintage of this wine (2002).
The 2012 Blanca Cusiné is elegant, aromatically profound with notes of its maturation shining through. It is golden in color and has layers of toasted apricot compote, lemon curd, and a long leesy finish. A sure testament of the beautiful blend of Xarel-lo, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir.
