A BIG WHITE

Trius Barrel Fermented

Chardonnay VQA (LCBO 251470, $19.95) is a full-bodied white (fermentati­on in the barrel adds structure and texture) and a great match with roasted meats and all your holiday accompanim­ents. It’s rich and complex.

A ROBUST RED

Syrah is rare in Ontario—and even rarer at the price and quality level of Creekside

Syrah VQA (LCBO 66654, $15.95). Concentrat­ed and robust, with blue fruit, it has medium tannins and pepper spice. It’s wonderful with a roast of beef or rib chop.

SOMETHING SWEET

An elegant balance of sweetness and acidity delivers a flavourful and textural sensation in Peller Estates Private Reserve Vidal Icewine

VQA (VINTAGES ESSENTIALS 18564, 200 mL, $27.95) like no other. It’s the reason icewine from Peller is revered around the world. For dessert, this is all you need.
