Tawse Growers Pinot Noir
$47.99
Tawse is a family-owned estate winery located on the lower slopes of the Niagara Escarpment in the sub-appellation of Twenty Mile Bench. Founder Moray Tawse purchased his Cherry Avenue property in 2000 and opened his six-level, state-of-the-art winery in 2005. Tawse was voted the number two winery in Canada in the Canadian Wine Awards and won a platinum medal from Decanter Magazine on their World wine awards.
Warm, enticing notes of dark cherry, savoury herbs, mulberry and potpourri on the nose, this Pinot Noir shows a fine balance between ripe fruit and more subtle, evolving characteristics. On the palate, the velvety tannins complement the refreshing acidity, with the wine culminating in a long, warm finish.
Tawse Riesling
$29.99
One of Niagara's most celebrated wineries, and one of Canada's most critically acclaimed wines! "Off-dry but loaded with citrus refreshment and Riesling’s ‘come-alive’ feeling," according to critic Billy Munnelly from Billy's Best Bottles. "Equally good for sipping or gulping." We agree! Pair with Thai takeout or pork loin. You'll want to buy a couple of bottles at this price.

Marchand Tawse Bourgogne Joie de Vigne
$47.99
The affable Pascal Marchand might be from Quebec, but his story is full-throttle French, and more specifically, deeply Burgundian. Over the past 45 years, he has built a resumé as good as anyone's in all of Burgundy, and even though Canadian, is considered today to be one of the originalists of what can be thought of as modern Burgundy. Starting in 1989 at the famed Comte Armand, he introduced organic farming, modernized the winery, and gained almost overnight acclaim for their now famous Pommard 'Clos des Epeneaux'. Following his tenure there, he pivoted to the Boisset family's Domaine de la Vougeraie, where until 2006, he converted their vast holdings into an organic and biodynamic treasure trove.
Finally, in 2011, along with partner Moray Tawse, another Canadian, he founded Domaine Marchand-Tawse, having purchased the old Maume cellars in Nuits St. Georges. Together, Marchand and Tawse have accumulated a staggering collection of vineyards in 68 different appellations up and down the Côte. Their price list covers nearly 3 pages and spans 5+ vintages with current releases.
