delicious great seasonal products this year.
Deadline for Pre-orders: Friday, August 8, 2008.

miss out.
Chocolate Raspberry Port
*Gold medal winner at the 2008 WineMaker Amateur Wine
Competition.
Hugely popular last year, this wine is bursting
with rich, intense flavours and aromas, has traditional Port
character of warm, rounded cherry and plum, supported by a racy zing
of bright raspberry. Perfumed and gently tart with luscious liquid
chocolate, beguiling with dark, bittersweet aromas of coffee and
vanilla. Toasty hints of oak guide the way to a long, rich finish.
Excellent within three months, this wine will age gorgeously—if
you can keep any that long!
Food pairings: Delicious on its own or with any
dessert, or serve with toasted nuts or shortbread.
Oak: Toasted
Sweetness: 7
Body: Full
Alcohol by volume: 15% - 16.5%
Available September 2008
Okanagan
Peach Icewine Style
The Okanagan Valley lies in the rain shadow of
British Columbia’s Coastal mountains. The region’s very low
annual average rainfall means that part of the valley is a true
desert! In this climate Vidal grapes ripen to perfect intensity,
with notes of honey, apricot, and spice. Winexpert’s Okanagan
Peach Icewine style (containing local Vidal from this region) has
deep floral notes, stone fruit and perfect sweetness, balanced with
the sun-ripened perfume of a luscious peach.
Food pairings: Can be enjoyed
all on its own, it’s an excellent accompaniment to earthy or salty
cheeses like Danish blue or Tilsit, or spicy snacks like tapas or
flavourful Asian dishes.
Oak: None
Sweetness: 8
Body: Full
Alcohol by volume: 11.25% - 12.5%
Available early November.
Deadline for Pre-orders: Friday, August 8, 2008.
Reserve both of these great products to ensure you don’t
miss out.
