April News and Specials
Spring is in the air! Now is the time to get your wine ready for BBQ season. To help you get started the following wines will be on sale $10 OFF their regular price.
Cru International Premium Kits (Regularly $134.99 – $139.99)
German Riesling – Clean, crisp, and slightly fruity, this wine is full of fruit flavour with an intense and pleasing aroma. You will want to savour through to the last sip. Pairs well with vegetarian dishes, seafood, and chicken.
California Cabernet Sauvignon – A hint of violet is present in the bouquet, typical of this variety. It’s superbly enhanced with the addition of oak, and while it can be drunk young, it also does well with age. Pairs well with grilled meat, portobello mushrooms, and strong cheeses.
French Rosé – Made in the classic French rosé style, it is light bodied and pink in colour with spiced strawberry and crisp, citrus aromas. The palate features fresh strawberry flavours with a refreshing fruity finish. Pairs well with Italian paninis or an Israeli cous cous salad.
Cru Select Platinum Series Ultra Premium Kits (Regularly $154.99 – $164.99)
Australian Viognier/Pinot Gris – This popular Australian white blend is extremely aromatic, opening with apricots and pear notes and finishing on a refreshing fruit forward note. Pairs well with roasted turkey and dried fruit sauce or spicy fish cakes.
Italian Nebbiolo – Made from the prized Nebbiolo grape, this wine features flavours of violet, cherries and cocoa. Undertones of toasted oak, dark fruit and firm acidity dominate the long finish. Enjoy with rack of lamb, mushroom lasagna or garlicky grilled beef.
