Pelee Island Winery ICEWINE Vidal Ontario
Description: The Island is rich in winemaking history. In 1891, Captain J.S. Hamilton, the president of Pelee Island Wine Company and J.S. Hamilton & Co., began construction of a three-storey building made from stone quarried on Pelee Island. Named the Wine House, it was located on five acres near the west dock on Pelee Island. From the winepress on the third floor, juice was piped to thousand-gallon vats on the lowest level. Initially, the cellar of the Wine House contained between 15 and 18 of these vats. In 1979 the Pelee Island Winery was re-established by a group committed not just to building a world-class winery, but also to the natural heritage of the island. The century old tradition of grape growing on the island continues. Pelee Island Winery now produce around 2 dozen different wines, and are the largest VQA wine producer in Ontario. Hugely concentrated with rich citrus and caramel laced fruit, eye- watering acidity, and a finish that never ends, this is simply a great dessert wine. Available in half bottles. (12 x 37.5 cl)

Jean-Claude Boisset Gevrey Chambertin AC
Description: This Gevrey-Chambertin from Jean-Claude Boisset is made using fruit from old vines, primarily from two Premier Cru vineyards in Gevrey. Boisset used to buy wine from the grower who owns the Crepiot vineyard, but since Gregory's arrival they buy grapes instead. In addition, Gregory has worked closely with the grower to improve the quality of the fruit arriving at the winery. This quality shines through in the finished wine, which has lovely black cherry fruit giving way to a minerally yet luscious character on the palate. (6 x 75 cl)
