Selection
August Kesseler 2015 Rüdesheim Berg Roseneck Riesling Grosses Gewächs
$134.99Deep and elegant on the nose, with ripe fruit woven through herbal, floral and mineral notes. The full-bodied palate is complex yet remarkably vivacious, balancing power and persistence with purity, finesse and lightness. Peach and lemon bring definition, while a piquant, salty finish adds grip, tension and impressive length.
Aultmore of the Foggie Moss 12 Year Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
$149.99Honey, vanilla and orchard fruit open a clean, gently aromatic Speyside profile. Citrus and a light grassy note add freshness, while soft malted barley gives the palate quiet roundness and balance. The finish is smooth, delicate and lingering rather than weighty. Serve neat or with a few drops of water, alongside roasted almonds, mild cheese, smoked trout or an apple tart with restrained sweetness.
Autour de l’Anne 2023 Les États d’Anne 750 mL
$45.99Fresh red fruit opens with an energetic, lightly smoky edge. The palate is bright and tingly, with semi-carbonic crunch giving the Cinsault and Grenache blend a lively, chillable texture. Fine spice adds definition without muting the fruit, while concrete fermentation keeps the profile clear and direct. It finishes crisp and savoury, leaving red berries, smoke, gentle spice and a refreshing snap.
Autour de l’Anne NV Wonder Womanne Sparkling Rosé
$49.99Coral pink and lively in the glass, with dried rose, fresh peach and ripe red berries carried by a bright, playful fizz.

Energetic but composed, this naturally made sparkling rosé is an easy match for charcuterie, grilled vegetables or lightly spiced dishes.
Avennia 2016 Arnaut Boushey Vineyard Syrah 750 mL
$124.99Dark blackberry and blueberry open with grilled meat, crushed olive, black licorice, camphor and pen ink. Full-bodied and deeply concentrated, the palate remains balanced by bright acidity and sweet, fine tannins. Cracked black pepper, pan drippings, orange essence and hand-rubbed sage add savoury complexity. The finish is exceptionally long and nuanced, lingering on saline mineral notes, spice and dark fruit.
Averaen 2022 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley
$49.99Dark cherry and strawberry meet earth, cracked pepper and a quiet thread of vanilla.

Pair with duck, roast chicken, salmon or mushroom dishes.
Averbode Abbey Ale Gift Pack 4 x 330 mL with Glass
$29.99Fresh and rounded, this blonde abbey ale brings gentle malt sweetness together with a lightly spicy, hop-led lift.

Averbode Blonde Abbey Ale 330 mL
$6.99Golden and mostly clear, with the possibility of a gentle haze from bottle conditioning.

Dry hopping adds definition without obscuring the grain, and the palate finishes fresh, full and pleasantly bitter. Serve cool with roast chicken, mussels, washed-rind cheese, pâté or herb-led vegetable dishes.
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.
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.
Averill Creek Rosé Vermouth
$39.99Linden blossom and pineapple weed give the aroma a gently floral, meadow-like character, joined by pink peppercorn and a hint of star anise. The palate is bright and lightly honeyed, with fresh herbal tones from nettle and tea balanced by cardamom spice and clean acidity. Its sweetness is measured, allowing the botanicals to remain precise. The finish is fragrant, gently bitter and refreshing. Serve chilled over ice, with soda or in a spritz.
Ayala 2015 Le Blanc de Blancs Champagne
$165.99White fruit and acacia honey lead a fresh, lively palate, with subtle pastry and brioche adding quiet richness. Fine bubbles and a silky texture carry grapefruit and blood orange toward a long, persistent finish, where chalky minerality and delicate salinity keep the wine precise. Serve as an aperitif or with ceviche, prawn risotto or rosemary-braised veal.
Ayala NV Brut Majeur Champagne
$104.99Citrus, white flowers and white-fleshed fruit lead an expressive, finely detailed nose.

A polished aperitif, it also works beautifully with shellfish, white fish, roast poultry or a cheese board.
Aydie 2022 Sans Sulfites Madiran
$47.99Blackcurrant fruit sits over dusty tannins and firm acidity, giving this direct, clear-cut red more lift than weight. The palate is crisp and fresh, with a savoury edge and enough structure to remain unmistakably robust. Straightforward and energetic rather than heavy, it works well with grilled sausages, roast pork or lentils.
Ayinger Oktober Fest-Märzen 500 mL
$7.49Amber-gold in the glass, this traditional festival lager opens with a deep malty and bready aroma.

Serve well chilled with pretzels, roast chicken, pork, sausages, sauerkraut or goulash. Its clean balance keeps the generous malt composed.
Ayinger Urweisse 500 mL
$6.99Fresh wheat and dark malt meet in a robust, richly flavoured Bavarian wheat beer.

Serve well chilled with roast chicken, sausages, pretzels, mushroom dishes or nutty cheese. Its bright carbonation keeps the generous malt character composed through the finish.
Azelia 2017 Barolo Margheria
$199.99Scorched earth opens the nose before toasted hazelnut, forest floor, dried herbs and a faint floral note emerge. Full-bodied yet elegant, the palate brings cranberry, star anise and orange zest into focus. Tightly knit, fine-grained tannins provide structure, while a saline edge lengthens the finish and rewards patient cellaring.
B Cellars 2014 Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 750 mL
$499.99Crème de cassis, blackberry and blueberry form a dense core, lifted by white flowers and framed by liquorice, graphite and restrained oak.
