Vancouver Island
Shelter Point Ripple Rock Single Malt Whisky
$99.99Vanilla and seasoned oak lead the aroma, followed by caramel, raisin and a restrained savoury smoke. The palate is broad and warmly spiced, with pepper and clove bringing structure around sweet malt and toasted wood. Toffee and dark chocolate soften the edges without obscuring the whisky’s coastal character. The finish is measured and persistent, carrying cocoa, oak and a gentle saline lift.
Blue Grouse 2023 Pinot Noir Cowichan Valley
$49.99Red cherry and raspberry meet forest floor, cool florals and a restrained touch of spice. Amphora brings textural depth, while seasoned oak adds structure without dominating the fruit. Medium-bodied and composed, the palate has fine tannins and maritime freshness. The finish remains savoury and precise. Serve with duck, salmon or mushrooms.
Rathjen Sparkling Rosé NV 750 mL
$44.99Fine bubbles carry cranberry and raspberry across a fresh, lightly earthy palate. Pinot Noir gives the wine a clear red-fruit centre, while mineral and gentle yeasty notes add savoury depth. Traditional-method production brings a composed texture and a subtle brioche accent without dulling the fruit. The finish stays bright and finely textured, leaving red berries, citrus lift, cool minerals and a quiet bread-dough note.
Averill Creek 2021 Pinot Noir
$41.99Tart red fruit leads with delicate berry fragrance and an earthy tobacco note. The palate is light to medium in body, balancing freshness with a quietly structured feel. Fine acidity keeps the fruit vivid, while savoury earth and gentle spice add dimension through a clean, composed finish that remains bright rather than weighty.
Blue Grouse 2024 Estate Chardonnay Cowichan Valley
$39.99Ripe apple and citrus are framed by gentle toast, a creamy lees texture and a quiet savoury note. Barrel fermentation and full malolactic conversion bring breadth, but cool-climate acidity keeps the palate focused and fresh. The finish is smooth, lightly wooded and balanced. Pair with roast chicken, salmon or creamy mushroom dishes.
Blue Grouse 2022 Quill Red
$38.99Blueberry pie and cassis lead into juicy red currant, plum and cranberry. Medium-bodied on the palate, it balances bright acidity with soft, plush tannins and a generous core of fruit. Subtle earth and a whisper of spice add savoury definition, carrying the berries through a smooth, lively and quietly persistent finish.
Rathjen 2018 Pinot Auxerrois
$36.99Bright citrus and honey lead a lively, gently rounded nose. The palate is fresh and quietly textured, with lees ageing in neutral oak adding breadth without masking the fruit. Clean acidity keeps the wine precise, carrying the citrus and honey through a poised, refreshing and persistent finish.
Averill Creek 2024 Joue White
$33.99Jasmine tea leads a clean, aromatic nose, followed by precise layers of fruit. Structured, textured and lightly saline, the palate begins with vibrancy before softening through a rounder middle. Fine, talc-like acidity brings shape and length to the finish. Serve with grilled prawns, sashimi, aromatic salads, soft cheeses or lightly spiced vegetable dishes.
Unsworth Vineyards 2023 Rosé
$33.99Wild strawberry and raspberry lead, followed by cranberry, tart cherry and a gently earthy rhubarb note. The palate is dry and vivid, with bright acidity carrying the red fruit over a cool stony mineral line. A light creamy texture softens the edges without dulling the freshness, leaving a clean, precise finish with plenty of coastal lift.
Sheringham Rhubarb Gin Liqueur 375 mL
$32.99Fresh rhubarb and bright citrus open the aroma, leading to a palate that balances tart fruit with measured sweetness. Juniper and gentle herbal notes keep the liqueur structured, while star anise and lemon peel add lift and a subtle savoury edge. The finish is lively, clean and lightly spiced. Serve chilled or over ice, top with soda or sparkling wine, or use in a citrus-led spritz where its sweet-tart character can stay focused.
Arbutus Distillery Blue Gin 375 mL
$31.99Juniper and coriander form a clear gin backbone, layered with locally grown hops, lavender, rosemary and lemon verbena. The palate is fresh and herbaceous, balancing piney structure with bright citrus and a restrained floral note. Butterfly pea flower gives the spirit its vivid blue colour and a dramatic shift when tonic or citrus is added. Serve in a Gin and Tonic with lemon, or build a bright, aromatic Collins-style drink.
Alderlea Vineyards 2023 Bacchus
$31.99Heady floral and citrus aromas open into juicy kiwi and ripe apricot. The palate is clean and crisp, with mature-vine fruit giving the wine more presence than its refreshing profile first suggests. Balanced acidity keeps everything bright and direct, carrying orchard fruit, citrus and a light floral echo through a fresh, poised and gently persistent finish.
Blue Grouse 2022 Quill White
$31.99White peach and pineapple lead with a light jasmine perfume. Juicy citrus brings energy to the palate, while vibrant natural acidity keeps the blend bright and precise. The texture remains clean and easy-moving, with tropical fruit, orchard fruit and delicate florals carrying into a refreshing, well-balanced finish that invites another glass.
Sheringham Orange & Rosemary Bitters
$25.99Bright orange peel meets fresh, savoury rosemary in a vivid aromatic profile with clear coastal character. The citrus brings lift and tang, while the herbaceous side adds structure and a clean, gently bitter finish. A few dashes can sharpen a Gin & Tonic, give a spritz more definition or add a modern herbal edge to vodka, light rum and blanco tequila cocktails. It is also useful in alcohol-free drinks where layered flavour and restrained bitterness are needed.
Sheringham Aromatic Bitters
$25.99A classic, versatile blend of herbs and spices designed to bring lift, depth and balance to cocktails. The profile is warmly aromatic rather than aggressively bitter, adding layered botanical character without overwhelming the base spirit. A few dashes can sharpen an Old Fashioned, deepen a Manhattan or give a spirit-forward highball more definition. It is equally useful in citrus-led drinks, where its spice and herbal structure help knit sweetness and acidity into a cleaner, more composed finish.
