Castillo de Almansa Reserva Red wine | 1.5 L Spain , Côte Méditerranéenne
Aromatic and robust
(61)$25.85Available Online Available In store
Rich and aromatic
This blend of Monastrell, Garnacha and Tempranillo available in a 1.5 L format comes from Spain’s Mediterranean coast. Made using grapes from old vines grown at high altitude, it beautifully expresses the elegance, complexity and authenticity of its terroir. We especially like its generous mouthfeel, balanced woodsy notes, and aroma of cooked plums. And its price is just as nice as its size is bountiful!
Refined and festive
Celebrated magazine Wine Enthusiast gave this Champagne—found in the Espace Cellier—a score of 90, which is excellent by any calculation. Hailing from the Côte des Bar region, a terroir known for Pinot Noir, it certainly does justice to this fresh, sophisticated varietal. Its complexity can be traced to the extended 36-month aging process, a frank mineral quality and the first pressing from the cœur de la cuvée, which contains the best juice. It’s fair to say this wine’s high calibre is matched only by its convenient size! This would be a sure-fire hit with guests or as a hostess gift.
Smooth and accessible
The Jacob’s Creek wine brand includes a wide range of grape varietals and blends that all offer great value for money. And this Shiraz Cabernet is no exception. Its 1.5 L size is as generous as its mouthfeel. With notes of oak, red fruit jam, licorice and mocha, it would pair wonderfully with stews or baked dishes like moussaka.
Low in alcohol, high in flavour
Now here’s a bubbly from the Fruity and sweet taste tag that charms on many levels! Not only is it budget-friendly and available in a large format, but it also combines aromas of peach, pear, pineapple, sage and nutmeg with a fruity, refreshing and low-alcohol finish. This light wine is a great pick for brunch or dessert to enhance sweeter dishes. Sparkling, joyful vibes guaranteed.
Juicy and delicately woodsy
The Perrin family, whose vineyard has been in operation for five generations, brings us this Southern Côtes du Rhône wine aged for one year in both oak barrels and stainless steel vats. With a ruby red hue featuring purplish-blue highlights, it offers notes of sandalwood, dark fruit, pepper and licorice, framed by supple, silky tannins. This blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre happily combines freshness, structure and a full body. It’s just as lovely as a pre-dinner drink as it is with a meal.
Famous and timeless
The first wine from Maison Ruffino in Tuscany, this red from the Fruity and medium-bodied taste tag has been made since 1877. It’ll delight your palate with hints of leather, cherry and white pepper balanced with tartness and an elegant finish, which make it a highly versatile choice. Pair it with stew or roasted vegetables, and you can’t go wrong.

(2)$28.00Not available Online Available In store
Fresh and floral
Pure Chardonnay equals pure pleasure. Matured on fine lees, this wine presents a veritable bouquet of aromas, including citrus, white fruit and flowers, elevated with a delightfully tart mouthfeel, a mineral quality and lemony notes. Fresh and invigorating like a clear winter sky, this light white works from the appetizer course all the way to the cheese platter. It pairs especially well with grilled fish, seafood and roasted poultry—in other words, it would go nicely with a classic holiday turkey meal!
