Burrowing Owl Meritage
$72.99
One of Canada's finest wines! The Burrowing Owl winery and vineyard lie within one of Canada's most unique ecosystems, near the north end of Osoyoos Lake, and is one of the most highly rated grape-growing locations in the Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys, and for that matter Canada. Here is the winemaking team's tasting note: "Vibrant and complex nose with everything from ripe raspberry, cassis, blackberry and prune plum through to dried sage brush, orange zest, clove, black olive, marzipan, dusty vanillin oak and malt. The palate is dry, rich and full bodied with crisp acidity and firm, medium-plus ripe tannins. The structure for aging is framed by plenty of dark chocolate, cocoa, cassis, black plum, black cherry, spiced berry compote, citrus peel and a touch of fig, raisin and leather. Drinking well now, it also shows the concentration to open up and evolve over a decade. Pair with rosemary and garlic studded leg of lamb or lamb tagine".
Burrowing Owl Cabernet Sauvignon
$69.99
Brilliantly made, and worth every penny. Owner Jim Wyse produced his first wines in 1997, concentrating on 4 grape varieties -- Cabernet and Merlot for red wines and Chardonnay and Pinot Gris for white. Winemaker Bill Dyer takes special pride in the fact that Burrowing Owl has become one of THE Canadian cult wines and is highly sought after upon release. Look for cedar, mint and blueberry aromas, finishing with hints of dill and anise. Small amounts of Merlot and Cabernet Franc added.

Driftwood's take on the classic Extra Special Bitter (ESB). Brewed with heaps of Mosaic hops and luxurious Golden Promise malt, this unique ESB combines some new world hop character with a traditional malt profile
Collective Arts Life in the Clouds
$4.69
Just one more sample of Collective Arts IPA to add to that delicious pile. Simcoe and Mosaic make this as punchy with juice as you'd expect. The hazy, delicate body keeps that hoppy mess in balance (the good kind of hoppy mess), and remains incredibly crushable.

Celebrate Canada! This sweet white wine was made from 100% Riesling grapes which were left to freeze naturally on the vine.

Best after a festive dinner with a selection of fresh fruit and light cheese. Hard to resist.
