“In this series we bring you our #FavouriteThings Holiday Gift Suggestions
which we personally recommend”
What’s a holiday without a little sparkling wine to celebrate the occasion. There are so many possibilities with a bubbly that say holiday fun. Add a little orange juice and you have a Mimosa, a spash of grenadine and a sugar cube and you’ve made a faux “champagne” cocktail or just enjoy it on it’s own. Whatever you decide you are going to enjoy this delightful Bordeaux sparkling for it’s incredible value as well as being such a delicious Chardonnay sparkler. Enjoy!

Sparkling Wine is Vibrant & Fruity
Pale golden with fine bubbles, this Chardonnay sparkler offers a fresh bouquet of pear and apple. Crisp and clean on the palate, its well-balanced dosage enhances the bright, fruity notes for a pleasantly refreshing finish.
Examples of great pairings: Seafood Salad, Smoked Salmon, Oysters, Pasta with Cream or Mushroom Sauce, Baked White Fish in Butter Sauce, Soft-ripened cheese, Chicken Sandwich, Prawns, Scallops
$17.99 currently on sale for $12.99 until December 27th
For pairings think stinky cheese, or up your game with oysters Rockefeller, or seared Sea Scallops. My favourite pairing is with waffles and strawberries with whipping cream and warm maple syrup. But let you be you ,and enjoy this bubbly alone or with whatever your imagination desires.
Wouldn’t serve a good value wine in a fine glassware wine glass? Up your game with the Josephinen Hutte Champagne No. 4 wineglass. You’re worth it.
Have a wonderful, bubbly holiday.
