Dominio de Tares Cepas Viejas
$31.99
This is a beautiful Mencía that comes from 70 to 90-year-old vines from the villages of Cacabelos, Vilafranca del Bierzo and Toral de los Vados, all in the Bierrzo region of Spain. The wine is fermented using ambient yeast fermentation then left to age for nine months in French and American oak barrels. It's then aged another 6 months in barrel before it is finally released. Mencia is grape that was overlooked outside of Spain but it's gaining a loyal following for its calling card of flowery aromas complimented by flavours that include strawberry, raspberry, black licorice, pomegranate and cherry. It can produce light, almost Pinot Noir of Gamay-like wines but this one is considerably more substantial, ideal with grilled meats.
Torlesse Pinot Gris
$20.79
Winemaker Kym Rayner has a number of medals to his credit and Torlesse has a reputation for producing wines of a very high standard. The wine shows distinctive passion fruit and pears with a creamy rich palate that also shows nuances of oak from barrel fermentation and finishes with a hint of sweetness. Chalk up another delicious white to the Kiwis!
Four Winds Purple Haze Hazy IPA
$4.63
From the Producer
"Purple Haze was brewed with botanically derived plant terpenes, allowing us to recreate the aroma and flavour profile of the Purple Haze cannabis strain without using any THC/CBD related products. Expect a dank, juicy IPA blooming with notes of berries and a melon funk from our use of Belma hops. Floral, earthy undertones help bolster this unique brew, with aromas reminiscent of fresh BC bud."
