Great question! In the world of wine, “vintage” refers to the year the grapes were harvested. It’s important because each year’s weather and growing conditions shape the wine’s flavour. A good vintage means ideal conditions, while a tougher one can add extra character and complexity. Some wines also get better with age–especially top vintages–so when you’re picking a bottle, take a look at the year. It could mean the difference between a wine that’s ready to enjoy now or one that needs a bit more time. Cheers to the story behind every sip!

This week, we’re uncorking the bold 2020 Merlot from –a true champion of its terroir. With a rich, multi-layered profile of blueberry compote, plum and blackberry, this Merlot reveals secondary notes of sweet to***co, chocolate and cedar from two years in French oak. On the palate, expect complex flavours of semi-sweet chocolate, white pepper and liquorice, all balanced by chalky tannins and a smooth, lingering finish.

Pair it with hearty dishes like tortellini with sausage, or for a vegetarian option, roasted cauliflower pasta with toasted walnuts.

Whether you sip it now or let it age for 6-12 months–or even 15-18 years–this powerful Merlot maintains its bold, unforgettable taste. Grab your bottle and sip into something special this Sunday.

Yes! Wine tasting has its own little art, known as the 5 S’s. Here’s a quick guide to help you taste like a pro:

- See: Start by admiring the colour and clarity. Tilt the glass and take in the hues–they’ll hint at the wine’s age and grape variety.

- Swirl: Give it a gentle swirl. This releases aromas, letting oxygen bring out the wine’s full profile.

- Smell: Take a deep breath! Scent is everything in wine tasting. Notice the layers of aroma, from fruits and flowers to spices.

- Sip: Take a small sip and let it coat your palate. Notice the flavours, texture and balance. Is it earthy, fruity, or spicy? Bold or delicate?

- Savour: Enjoy the finish. A great wine will leave lingering flavours you’ll want to remember.

Whether you’re a seasoned wine lover or just looking to enjoy a nice glass, here’s what to keep in mind when shopping for your next bottle:

- Look at the Label: Labels give you the scoop–everything from the region and vineyard to the grape variety and winemaker’s touch.

- Consider Food Pairings: Planning to have it with dinner? Check if it complements the flavours you’re cooking up!

- Check the Vintage: The year matters! Some years bring better wines than others depending on the weather and conditions, so don’t be afraid to ask!

Happy sipping!
