Vineland Estates Cabernet Franc
$24.99
Why call a cab when you can have a Cab Franc. Okay, we're fooling around with a play on words here because this Canadian red is worth a ride. It's a little lighter than a Cabernet Sauvignon but with just as much finesse. Medium-bodied and smooth with raspberry aromas and flavors of sweet roasted bell pepper and a hint of smokiness. Nice oak and a long, long finish. Great with roast lamb.
Tawse Rose
$27.99
Rose is truly a food-friendly wine and one of the most flexible. It's crisp yet blossoming with fruit flavours like strawberry and cherry. It's acidity and flavour make it a natural with all manner of salads and appetizers. Try a roasted vegetable salad, or spiced fresh oysters. Or serve it on the deck with snacks and cheeses. Easy going and appealing to all.
Forty Creek Confederation Oak Reserve
$74.99
"One of the finest Canadian whiskies I have ever tasted. Creamy and seamless from beginning to end. Gently sweet, with orange creamsicle, marzipan, sultana, praline, maple syrup, and a hint of coconut macaroon. Forty Creek whiskies have always been very good, but none have ever had the right stuff to reach classic status. Until now, that is. An outstanding, very distinctive whisky!" 95pts John Hansel Malt Advocate
Road 13 Sparkling
$51.99
Here's a sparkling wine that well.......sparkles! Loads of citrus fruits showcasing grapefruit, lemon rind, lime zest and quince. Completing the layers of flavours on the palate is shortbread crumbs, honeysuckle, toasted almond and yeasty bakery notes from the two years of lees contact. Chenin Blanc is legendary for its racy acidity yet this one is also beautifully balanced with great length.

Spirit Hills Dande Honey Mead
$34.99
Dandelion mead from Alberta! (It's made near Millarville!) "Many of us had a family member who made Dandelion wine. It was the settler's wine in a grape-less province and speaks to the resourcefulness of those who built this country. But make no mistake, it was not an inferior product, our ancestors valued quality and good taste. Dandelion wine is exquisite and unique in taste. It is a medium-dry wine, best served chilled. It smells of pastures full of wildflowers, the fresh morning dew, and the delicate texture of its golden flower petals. It arrives on your tongue, fresh like the awakening foothills, warms you up like the sunshine and leaves you with an earthy sensation of embrace. It is mysterious, grounding and lingers in the mouth with a taste for more. It is the ultimate white wine adventure. So seducing and mysterious that even beer drinkers become fans," according to the Spirit Hills team.
