This elegant, traditional-method sparkling has dried apricot and lemon curd on the palate. Great for the heat, whether that's in the summer sun or by a fireplace.

Mainly Gamay with a hint of Cab Franc (7%), this light sparkling red has great pairing potential, with candied red fruit notes on a crisp palate.

Red fruit notes nestled in a melony background make this bubbly a great pairing with seafood.

Citrus and melon notes make this a great pairing for simple sushi or a light cheeseboard.

Chardonnay is Domaine l'Espiegle's most-cultivated grape, and they know how to treat it. One of the best Canadian Chardonnays we've tried in a while.

Mostly Chardonnay, with the remaining 5% split between Muscadet, Riesling, Savagnin, and Ehrenfelser, this cuvee is a nod to the farmers, interred in the eponymous cemetery nearby, who first tilled the soil on which these grapes are grown. Solemn, but not intolerably so.

A medium-bodied red with notes of black cherry licorice, strawberry, and a hint of leather, this one could use some time in a decanter. Delicious now, but totally cellar-worthy.

As the name ("fougue" translates as 'ardor') indicates, this is a wine with impact, with cherry florality on the nose and notes of stonefruit and lemon curd on the palate, and an almond-y finish. Like some passions, this one needs time: open a day in advance for its full expression.

A nose of melon, beeswax, and riesling's signature petrol, fulfilled in a palate of cantaloupe and baking spices with a steely acidity.
