PINOTS
A vine family whose wines distinctly reflect their clone, region and winemaker's style. Grigio's are
lighter, fresher with citrus zestiness. Blanc's display more florality, softer fruit and minerality. In Gris,
experience ripe tropical fruit, hints of spice and a fuller profile.

SAUVIGNON BLANC/SEMILION
Regionality defines personality when it comes to these classic Bordeaux varieties. Sancerre produces
the archetype, elegant Sauvignon with gooseberry, herbs and minerality. N.Z. gives us the undisputed #1
contender with brilliant tropical fruit and admirable intensity. South American entries provide a riper style
while the Ontario Semilion shows quenching grapefruit in proper Bordelais fashion.

AROMATIC VARIETIES
A beauty pageant of wine!This class displays the brilliance of florality that wine has to offer.
Torrontes and Verdelho are lighter and silkier wines. Riesling and Muller Thurgau are medium in
body offering more spiciness and texture. Gewurztraminer and Viognier are voluptuous, full
of tropical riches. The Spanish Verdejo drinks with a slightly surprising effervescence.

CHARDONNAY
Chablis is the origin of proper unoaked Chardonnay. Look for citrus fruit, bright acidity
and salty minerality that calls for food from the sea. Dressed up in oak Chardonnay develops the
nerve to take on heavier proteins and textures. For silkier, more restrained styles stay in France. For
more fruit and nut driven styles try Australian or California Chards.

SPARKLING
Meals are special occasions and sparklers are incredible food wines so don't search for a reason,
you have two! Proseccos are appetizing, unpretentious and playful bubblies... nice start or
finish to a meal. The Gavi sparkler is a rare find, aged on its lees in the traditional method, incredible
complexity for great value. Cava is Spain's answer to Champagne, ideal for the thirsty bubbly fan.

PINOT NOIR & GAMAY
Typically light to medium in body these varieties show forest berries with savoury characteristics.
Gamay/Beaujolais are brighter in red fruit with firmer acid, suitable for fatty fish and lighter meats.
Pinot from its birthplace, Burgandy, is the classic example. Good acidity and savoury, earthy 
flavours complement fowl and lighter game. N.Z. is known to produce the best pinots outside
Burgandy. The Mt. Rosa has WOW-factor. If you’re leaning toward chicken, fish or if you enjoy
a bolder, fruitier style of Pinot, go with the Cuvaison from California.

TEMPRANILLO & GRENACHE
One of today’s trendiest varieties finds its origins in the Iberian Peninsula and is now being planted
around the world and comes to you with aromas and flavors of berries, plum, tobacco, vanilla, leather
and herb. Grenache is generally spicy, berry-flavored and soft on the palate. The Priorat region of
Spain has quickly become a hot spot of wine with Grenache blends leading the way.

SANGIOVESE
Possibly one of the world's most versatile varieties in terms of style and food matching. Chianti
is long known for its sour cherry fruit and vibrant acidity... the classic pair to everything tomato-based.
Classico's and Riservas are aged longer in oak and show darker fruit, greater complexity and concentration;
they bring the best out of veal, lamb and beef. Brunello is a precious zone in Tuscany, producing
wines from the Grosso clone of Sangiovese. Wild roses, nuts and cherry are hallmarks of Brunello.

SYRAH/SHIRAZ
A noble variety of unknown origin that produces bold, dark and spicy wines whose best can age for
decades. Crowned in the Northern Rhone the variety shows blackberry, olives, herbs and pepper spice...
ideal with lamb and big game. Nicknamed Shiraz in Australia, expect brighter black fruit, notes of
leather and mint.

CABERNET, MERLOT, MALBEC
The "blue blooded" family of vines from the power base of Bordeaux. In Cabernet you have the world's
most renowned red grape. In Merlot the world's most planted and in Malbec, the prodigy. Cabernet is king
when it comes to body, intensity and rare meat. Merlot, known to be juicier, rounder and richer in
texture, sings with beef and veggies. Like Merlot, Malbec has luscious mid-palate fruit that shows spicier
in Ontario and savoury in Argentina. Cousin Carmenere is an earthy twist on the virtues of them all.

VALPOLICELLA & AMARONE
Valpolicella is to wine what velour is to fabric. Fresh blueberries and plush violets often find themselves
playing match to spicy braised meat dishes in Veneto. Ripassos offer richer mouth feel and greater
texture complementing meats with rich sauces. Amarone's intensity and extract demands bold
flavours. Quintarelli conducts symphonies!

NEBBIOLO & COMPANY
From the foot of the mountains comes Italy’s greatest wines. Nebbiolo is nobility in Barolo &
Barbaresco, offering the extremes of intensity and elegance withold world charm. Barbera’s
versatility makes it the “resident” grape of Piedmont because it’s what the Piemontese drink
everyday with most meals, as should you! In the shadows of Nebbiolo grows Dolcetto which
produces a soft, round, fruity & fragrant wine for lighter fare.

DNA profiling pointed the origins of Zinfandel to Croatia. That  won’t stop us from pointing out its
stark similarities with Primitivo from neighboring Italy. One thing for certain is they both love hot
climates and produce big wines with loads of ripe fruit that show chocolate & spice from oak ageing.
Introduce them to grilled meats.
