Well-kept secret
Whispering Angel is mostly made of Grenache. Harvested only at night and in the morning for optimal freshness, the grapes are then optically sorted, removing any grapes deemed to be of insufficient quality. The owner of the estate, Sacha Lichine, has revolutionized the style of the region's rosés with his innovative methods. Its winery boasts great elegance and aromatic intensity.

Rosé, the Kim way
Since its launch in 1996, Kim Crawford has garnered accolades and a loyal following. The brand’s rosé is lively and elegant, offering a beautiful fruity profile featuring notes of watermelon and fresh berries. Easy to drink, it hops from aperitif to the table brilliantly, especially when paired with fresh and colourful salads.

Of roses and white wine
Loved for both its container as its content, this white wine from master winemaker Gérard Bertrand is a skillful blend of several grape varieties. On the nose, aromas of white flowers, pear and a touch of minerality. On the palate, orchard fruits and a crisp finish. Bonus: the bottle is so pretty and practical, you can reuse it as a carafe.

This fruity and lively white wine, made from 100% Pinot Grigio, boasts an impressive fruity and floral bouquet (nectarine, lemon, jasmine). On the palate, it reveals all the exceptional qualities of the Collio Goriziano vineyard: superb structure, mineral aromas, beautiful acidity, and a delicious texture.

A favourite of Quebecers, the famous Italian estate signs a Prosecco that seduces with its beautiful freshness, acidity, and delicate bubbles. While its fruity and balanced aromas make it an excellent option for an aperitif, it also pairs brilliantly with salmon tartare. Our Candiac employee even describes it as refined and excellent, all in capital letters. Hard to resist, right?
