Emrich Schonleber Mineral Trocken
$54.99
This estate dates back to 1815 and today they farm 20 hectares of vineyards. Riesling currently accounts for 85% of the vines, supplemented by Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris) and Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc). Werner and Frank Schönleber have worked their way to the top of their profession. Germany's leading wine guides unanimously rate Weingut Emrich-Schönleber as a world-class winery. The Mineral is sourced from the younger vines of the Halenberg and Fruhlingsplatschen GG vinyards,and it offers an incredible value to Riesling lovers. Surprisingly saline whilst true to it's name, Mineral hews razor-blade like precision with hammer like slatey minerality buoyed by linear acidity (even in 2022). A wonderful showcase of all the terroirs of the Nahe.
Benjamin Bridge Brut
$72.99
A gorgeous sparkling wine from Canada's own Benjamin Bridge! This Nova Scotia-based winery is making some world-class bubbles, and winning awards all around the world. See what the fuss is about. And Forbes magazine picked this 2008 beauty as one of only three sparkling wines it recommended for its Thanksgiving wines this year: "Yes, Nova Scotia. The Gaspereau Valley on the Bay of Fundy, to be exact. I poured this wine for a group of friends the other night, and it was the winner by far even before they knew it was from Nova Scotia. Learning that, and the novelty of its origin, meant they liked it even more…"

Regardless of what we think of him, the Crown Royal Northern Harvest is a solid Canadian Whisky and worth a try if you are a Crown Royal or Canadian Whisky fan! 45% ABV.

Black Hills Chardonnay
$39.99
One of our favourite Canadian wineries! Black Hills became particularly famous for its Bordeaux-style red blend, Nota Bene, but winemaker Graham Pierce and his team also make stellar white wines such as this beautiful Chardonnay. "Rich and rounded, our Chardonnay has been in production since 2006. This is a fruit driven, barrel fermented wine."
The 2022 Vintage consists of 100% Chardonnay that spent 10 months sur lie and saw 6% new oak used before bottling.
D'Arenberg Feral Fox Pinot Noir
$34.99
All d’Arenberg estate owned and leased vineyards are ACO Certified for organic and biodynamic processes. This natural and environmentally friendly philosophy encourages strong root systems that penetrate the soil, resulting in lively tannin structures. From entry level to iconic, all d’Arenberg wines have been basket pressed, reds and whites, with all red ferments foot trod during fermentation. Small batches of grapes are gently crushed, then transferred to five tonne headed-down open fermenters, all batches remain separate until final blending. The red wines are foot trod two thirds of the way through fermentation, and then basket pressed. These practices also ensure that yields are kept low with concentrated flavours and excellent natural acidity.
Torbreck GSM Old Vines

Great value from Australia's renowned Torbreck winery! This beauty is a blend of Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro grapes, some of which come from vines that are more than 100 years old! Full-bodied, with gorgeous notes of blackberries, white pepper and spice, and a long finish. Pair with steak, stews or roast beef.
