2009 Chateau La Garde

91 Points – Wine Spectator
Juicy, ripe, creamy blackberries mingle on the palate with sweet spice and lead to a complex, savory finish. The Cabernet has added much valued freshness here making this already very moreish. Chateau La Garde used to be a more Merlot-dominant wine but the blend is now changing in favour of Cabernet Sauvignon with excellent results in 2009.

NOTABLE WINES & SPIRITS CURRENTLY AT WILLOW PARK WINES & SPIRITS!

2008 Gabbiano Chianti Riserva

This Riserva is made only from grapes grown on the Gabbiano Estate in the heart of Tuscany. Only the oldest and best Sangiovese vines on the property are used. Rich and intense ruby colors paint a picture of full body, texture and complexity. Dry and luscious with a blend of 95% Sangiovese, 5% Merlot. Aromas of violets with flavors that ring of black licorice, tobacco, red cherries, cassis, plum and oak. The finish is a dream!

2007 Frescobaldi di Castiglioni

The warmth of the 2007 vintage wafts out of the glass along with deep cherry notes – it’s generous on the palate, with a touch of licorice on the finish. Try this delicious red alongside your favourite pasta and sausage dish.

2001 Hetszolo Tokaji Aszu

The 2001 vintage produced some of the greatest sweet wines ever made right across Europe and this Tokjai Aszu is one such example. Perfectly balanced with a combination of honey and citrus on the palate, the finish goes on forever.

Canard Duchene Rose

Fine bubbles, pale gold hue, aromatic and a spicy nose. With wild red-berry fruit on the nose, the sweetness of the dosage shows on the mid-palate but the wine finishes dry. Enjoy with spicy Thai take-out or sushi with wasabi. This Rose is available at a great price point.

Ganton & Larson Fats Johnson Pinot Noir

A lovely vintage for Okanagan Pinot Noir as the fruit came in perfectly ripe so the wines are showing more character and length than many previous vintages – simply a stunner when paired with grilled fish.

Beluga Vodka

Distilled and produced in Russia, Beluga is not just vodka, but a designer exclusive product produced completely manually, in accordance with unique recipes. Beluga is produced with malt alcohol, a natural product that does not contain any artificial additives. One of the most important distinctive features of Beluga is that its recipe requires the use of hyaline artesian water from Siberian springs, and malt alcohol that helps significantly improve the taste of this vodka. Beluga vodka also contains ingredients such as honey, oat extract, and Silybum marianum extract, giving it a deep and refined taste and flavor. This product is filled into bottles made of crystal-pure French glass, corked with an ecologically clean cork then hermitically sealed. Each bottle is manually decorated with a 3D Beluga fish symbol. Mature and refined structure for an immaculate taste!

Glenrothes 1994

This scotch whisky contains the character and complexity of all the Glenrothes expressions with a zestiness which may pleasantly surprise even the most regular of Glenrothes enthusiasts. On the nose, the first few seconds are filled with buttery toffee which is typical for the Glenrothes. After that, a wave of zesty lemon shows up and makes it a lot fresher. Its spring character shows juicy pears and orange fruit gums with a touch of vanilla. On the mouth it’s quite malty with a fruity layer of fresh plums. Hints of hazelnuts are in the aftertaste. Best, either after a light meal or before dinner.
