2010 Rondeau Red: $13
A blend of Merlot, Gamay and Viognier. Character: Fruit forward and spicy. Medium bodied and unoaked. Pleasant Pairings: Serve at room temperature with grilled and charred foods. Fresh or dried cranberries, black olives, mushrooms and fresh herb dishes.
2009 Merlin Rouge: $13
Here is our medium dry, un-oaked Cabernet Franc, bringing us lots of plumy fruits and zesty flavour. Pleasant Pairings: Merlin is an excellent wine on it’s own, or paired with a friend and some good conversation.
2009 Ruby Tuesday: $12
A light blend of Gamay, Chambourcin and Merlot, this youthful wine is the perfect sip for almost any occasion or taste. Ruby is the “friendly” wine – a crowd pleaser. Pleasant Pairings: Ruby is versatile at the table. Good choices would be light tomato dishes, pizza, and grilled chicken. This is the bottle to pack in the picnic basket – a great lunch wine.
2008 Buckhorn Baco Noir: $13
(Silver Medal Winner)
Character: Deep dark purple colour, earthy peat and mushroom nose with a soft and lengthy smoky finish. Pleasant Pairings: Serve at room temperature with strong cheeses, grilled meats or game.
2008 Chambourcin: $12
Developed in the Loire Valley in France, this grape is a new variety that is very happy on Lake Erie’s north shore. High tannins and aromas of cherry and bell pepper add definition to the light, refreshing character of this wine. Pleasant Pairings: Chambourcin is a perfect lunch partner, as a bright acidity allows it to work with salads and tomato dishes.
2007 Double Barrel: $15
(Silver and Double Bronze Medal Winner)
Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Syrah have been expertly blended and aged in oak barrels to produce a wine with hints of soft vanilla and fruit, and a long warm finish. Pleasant Pairings: Full rich dishes will work best with the big flavours of Double Barrel. Moroccan lamb, pepper steak, most Greek foods, or a BBQ burger are some good matches.
2006 Double Barrel: $14
Cabernet Franc and Merlot are blended in this balanced, complex red to produce a full body, mellow oakiness, and ripe blue fruits. Pleasant Pairings: Serve this red with a Mediterranean vegetable ragout or a pot roast simmered in garlic – or with a wild mushroom and Camembert bruschetta.
