Barrel Futures: a new way to
enjoy barrel-aged wine |
Barrel aging a wine can enhance its flavours
greatly.
With our new Barrel Futures
offering, you can enjoy the luxury of French, American or Hungarian
oak-aged wines, without the commitment of purchasing the
barrel.
How does it work? Sign up
for either a 6-month or 1-year term and we will surprise and
delight you every month with a case of our Barrel Futures feature
wine.
Variety. Each month, our
winemaker takes great pride each in carefully selecting the best
grapes for our Barrel Futures wine. You'll get to try a variety of
some of our best wines.
This month. We're excited
to offer a full-bodied Malbec from Lunlunta, Argentina, a region
known for its brilliant expression of the varietal. This rich
Malbec displays intense black fruit and velvet tannins -- ideal to
serve at a summer BBQ, or to savour on a quiet night in.
It's not too late to place an order. Call or email us today and your case will be ready for
pick-up.

The
wonders of wine vinegar
|
The perfect
ingredient. If you're not regularly splashing a wine vinegar
over your culinary delights, there is no better time to start. The
intricate flavours will add a unique accent to any meal, and your
body will thank you for it.
Health benefits. Red wine
vinegars are typically low in, or have no, calories, carbohydrates
or sodium. They're perfect for use it on foods to add sharp flavor,
eliminating or decreasing the need for salt.
All vinegars, because of their acetic acid content, are recognized
as helping to control and lower cholesterol levels, triglyceride
levels and blood pressure. Balsamic vinegar also contains the
powerful antioxidant, polyphenols.
Try V1's Malbec Wine
Vinegar, Balsamic
Vinegar, and Balsamic
Reduction. They are signature to many of our favourite
dishes and we often pair them with our Olive Oil, imported from
Argentina.
All vinegars, reduction and olive oil are readily available at the
winery in individual bottles ready for gifting. Call us to place
your order. |
