Pentage 2023 Pinot Gris
Ripe stone fruit and zesty citrus open a clean, inviting nose. The palate brings nectarine, sun-warmed peach and tangy citrus together in a crisp, medium-bodied frame. Smooth texture gives the fruit breadth, while refreshing acidity keeps the wine bright, direct and neatly balanced through the finish.
Haywire 2022 Lunar Red
Dark red fruit and cassis open the nose, framed by vanilla and restrained baking spice. The palate moves toward vibrant black cherry and plum, with fresh acidity giving the blend cool-climate precision and lift. Grounded and expressive rather than showy, it finishes with an easy food-friendly balance. A natural match for Peking duck or other richly seasoned dishes.
Howling Bluff 2023 Pinot Gris
Crisp and fruit forward, with juicy stone fruit and melon leading into a bright line of Meyer lemon. Partial lees stirring and malolactic fermentation add texture and aromatic lift without dulling the easy-drinking freshness. Hand-picked fruit was split between two vessels and fermented with different yeasts, giving the clean, lively palate a little extra dimension through the finish.
Deep Roots 2023 Pinot Gris
Silky and floral, with a distinctive salty minerality bringing tension to the smooth texture. The palate is poised and quietly expressive, letting the mineral line carry through a clean, savoury finish. Its combination of softness and definition makes it especially versatile at the table. Serve well chilled with shellfish, sushi, fresh salads or delicate vegetable dishes.
Sage Hayward 2022 Nuance Aromatic Blend
Pome fruit, white flowers and honey shape the nose, leading to pear and bright citrus rind on the palate. A subtle toasted-almond note adds savoury detail without weighing down the wine's fresh, crisp profile. Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer and Muscat work together in a delicate, fragrant white with clean lines and an easy, refreshing finish.
Chaberton 2025 Estate Grown Bacchus
Lemon zest and crisp apple lead a bright, clean profile, softened by gentle floral tones of honeysuckle. The palate enters with generous fruit but stays fresh and well defined, balancing richness with lively acidity. Composed and easy to pair, it suits roast poultry, shellfish, fresh cheeses or lightly spiced vegetable dishes.
Wild Goose 2022 Gewürztraminer
Exotic orange, fragrant melon and honeysuckle give this off-dry white an expressive, perfumed start. A streak of ginger spice adds definition, while a juicy line keeps the rounded texture lively. Generous yet balanced, the palate carries sweet citrus and floral detail into a smooth finish, with enough freshness for curries, aromatic poultry or soft cheese.
Brickers Ardbeg Barrel Aged Cider 750Ml
Tender Hope Winery 2023 Rosé of Syrah 750 mL
Strawberry, raspberry and cherry lead, with a bright citrus note bringing lift. The palate is crisp and dry, keeping the red fruit clear and energetic rather than sweet or heavy. Fresh acidity gives the wine a clean outline, while a light floral tone adds detail through the centre. Refreshing and composed, it finishes with lingering berries, citrus and a gentle mineral edge.
Temporal Artisan Ales Somewhereness B3 Saison
Two barrel-fermented and aged saison bases come together here, one built around malted spelt and the other malted rye. Amarillo and Cascade hops add measured citrus and floral detail, while a final dry hop with Czech Saaz brings a fine herbal edge. The palate is grain-led, dry and quietly complex, with oak and farmhouse fermentation held in balance. Serve cool with roast chicken, aged cheese or mushroom dishes.
Temporal Artisan Ales Balaton Cherry Saison 750 mL
Balaton cherries bring tart, dark-red fruit to a blend of barrel-fermented and aged saisons, giving the beer a vinous depth without obscuring its farmhouse character. Bright acidity and gentle oak frame the fruit, while the dry finish keeps the palate composed and savoury. Serve cool rather than ice-cold with roast duck, pork, washed-rind cheese or mushroom dishes, allowing the cherry and barrel notes to unfold gradually in the glass.
The Liberty Distillery Endeavour Origins Gin
Bright forest aromas open with juniper and cypress pine, followed by wild berries, coastal herbs and a delicate thread of spice. The palate is supple and layered, moving from a firm juniper core through aromatic botanicals to a cool hint of mint. The finish is smooth, seamless and lingering, with a distinctly West Coast feel. Serve neat or over ice, build a clean Gin & Tonic, or use it in a Martini where the forest and coastal notes can stay clear.
Northern Lights Mirtillo Blueberry Wine
Juicy dark berry fruit leads an expressive, fruit-forward profile, with subtle vanilla and a delicate leafy fragrance adding definition. The palate is off-dry and medium-bodied, balancing vivid berry flavour with the breadth of Hungarian-oak ageing. The texture stays lively and composed through a gently rounded finish.
Bordertown 2019 Grüner Veltliner
Bright and aromatic, with pineapple and a soft honeyed note lifted by a light mineral edge. White peach and apricot carry through the palate, where balanced acidity keeps the ripe fruit fresh and clean. The texture is gently rounded without losing definition, finishing poised and easy. Serve well chilled with seafood, soft cheeses or lightly spiced vegetable dishes.
La Stella 2025 Moscato d’Osoyoos 375mL
Orange blossom, peach rind, rose petal and melon form an intensely aromatic profile. Light effervescence lifts the fruit, while bright acidity and measured sweetness keep the palate lively rather than heavy. Serve well chilled as an aperitif, with brunch, a cheese board or gently spiced Thai, Cambodian and Vietnamese dishes; it is especially appealing alongside fragrant herbs and mild heat.
Three Sisters 2016 Bench Red 750 mL
Dark berry and cherry fruit lead, with earthy undertones and a measured layer of oak. Merlot and Cabernet Franc shape a full but approachable palate, supported by smooth, refined tannins rather than heavy extraction. The texture is rounded and velvety, allowing the fruit to remain clear. It finishes with steady length, leaving dark fruit, gentle earth and a polished tannic frame.
Winemaker’s Cut 2019 Rosé 750 mL
Field berries, candied strawberry and white peach lead, joined by watermelon and a gentle floral lift. The palate is crisp yet creamy, with bright berry fruit and citrus framed by mouthwatering minerality. A light savoury note gives the fruit shape without adding weight. Dry and refreshing, it closes cleanly with tart strawberry, peach and a lingering citrus edge.
Rathjen Cellars Imperative Dry Vermouth
Orange peel and fresh herbs lead a light, aromatic nose, with cardamom and marjoram adding warm, savoury detail. Roasted dandelion root gives the palate an earthy bitterness, while wormwood keeps the dry profile firm and focused. The fruit remains restrained, allowing the botanical layers to unfold without heaviness. The finish is crisp, gently bitter and refreshing. Serve chilled as an aperitif, over ice with citrus, or use it to bring local herbal character to a Martini.
Grey Fox Brewing Prolific Pale Ale
A gluten-free Belgian-style pale ale with a pronounced malt profile, gentle honeyed character and restrained hop bitterness. Millet and rice create a clean, rounded base, while subtle hops keep the finish balanced and dry rather than sweet. The result is flavourful but composed, with enough freshness for the table. Serve well chilled with roast chicken, grilled sausages, nutty cheese or lightly spiced dishes.
