-

From pumpkin spice to apple pie, autumn is a time of warming tastes. Capture the season’s essence in these innovative new bottles, which complement fall food flavours beautifull­y.

Steinhart Rhubarb Gin

LCBO 19408, 500 mL, $37.95

This Nova Scotia distillery’s apothecary-style bottle hides a golden, spicy gin with tart rhubarb and bright evergreen-tinged juniper. Enjoy it in a fall Martini or as a highball with soda water.

The Wanted Zin Old Vines Zinfandel IGT

LCBO 416487, $14.80

Known for its deep, spicy notes, Zinfandel is a stellar fall food wine. The mocha and dried fruit notes on the finish of this old-vines bottling pair well with roasted lamb or Mexican mole. Look for the new 1.5 L bottle (LCBO 19696, $24.95) in stores this fall.

Baileys Apple Pie

LCBO 22034, $32.45

With tastes of baked apple and warm spice, this new flavour of the beloved cream liqueur puts the à la mode on seasonal fall flavours. Use it to make a luxe chai latte, or double down on decadence and pour it over ice cream.

Compañero Elixir Orange

LCBO 19997, $71.40

This sweet Trinidadia­n rum, infused with orange, coconut and warm spice, is a cozy fall reminder of sundrenche­d flavours. Enjoy a pour over ice after dinner, especially with chocolate desserts.
