Guess the Wine 🍷

This white is known for its lush, aromatic style—bursting with notes of peach, apricot, and floral hints like honeysuckle. It’s typically fuller-bodied than most whites, with a smooth, almost creamy texture and lower acidity.

You’ll often find it paired with spicy dishes, roasted chicken, or anything with a touch of richness, as it holds its own without overpowering. While not the most well-known wine out there, those in the know enjoy it (me included!).

Wine + Spicy Food: How to Feel the Heat (Without the Pain)

Love spicy food but hate when your wine taps out early? Here’s the trick: heat and tannins are not friends.

🔥 What to avoid:
Big tannic reds + chili heat = mouth on fire, wine ruined, regrets made.

✅ What works instead:
• Off-dry whites – a touch of sweetness cools the burn / Riesling, Gewürztraminer
• High-acid whites – refresh, reset, repeat / Sauvignon Blanc
• Light, low-tannin reds – chill them slightly and thank us later / Pinot Noir
• Rosé – the unsung hero of spicy food

🍜 Perfect pairings:
Thai, Indian, Szechuan, jerk chicken, tacos with heat, spicy wings

💡 Pro tip:
Alcohol intensifies spice. Lower alcohol = happier mouth.

You want the wine to cool things down — not call the fire department. 🍷🔥

May 28 – Hamburger Day 🍔🍷

Burgers bring the fat, the char, and all the flavour—so your wine needs to keep up. Reach for reds with enough body and structure to cut through the richness, like Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, or Zinfandel. Their tannins help balance the fat, while bold fruit and spice stand up to that smoky, grilled edge.

Not a red drinker? A slightly chilled, fruit-forward red or even a robust rosé can do the trick.

Big flavours on the plate deserve a wine that doesn’t back down.

May 26 – Pinot Grigio Day 🍷

Originally from France (where it’s called Pinot Gris), this grape found its fame in northern Italy and is now grown around the world—from Italy and France to the U.S., Australia, and right here in Canada.

In the glass, Pinot Grigio is typically light, crisp, and refreshing, with notes of green apple, pear, and citrus. It’s known for its bright acidity and clean finish—perfect for easy sipping.

Food-wise, it shines with light dishes like seafood, salads, grilled chicken, and simple pastas, where it enhances rather than competes with the flavours.

And yes—Pinot Grigio and Pinot Gris are the same grape. The difference is style: Italian Pinot Grigio tends to be lighter and more zesty, while French Pinot Gris is often richer, rounder, and more textured.

We have Pinot Grigio wine kits - from everyday 4-week wines to 8-week blends (Pinot Gris Verdelho), as well as 5-week and 6-week kits!

May 21 – International Chardonnay Day 🍷

Originally from Burgundy, France, Chardonnay has gone global—thriving everywhere from California to Australia, Chile, and right here in Canada. It’s one of the most versatile grapes on the planet… and it shows.

What’s in the glass?
Chardonnay can swing from crisp green apple and citrus to rich notes of butter, vanilla, and baked apple—depending on how it’s made.

Oak vs. Unoaked:
- Unoaked: light bodied, fresh, clean, and zesty (think citrus, apple, mineral)
- Oaked: fuller-bodied, smooth, with hints of butter, vanilla, and caramel

Food Pairings:
- Unoaked: seafood, salads, sushi, light pasta
- Oaked: roasted chicken, creamy pasta, lobster, buttery dishes

Bottom line?
Chardonnay isn’t one-style-fits-all—it’s whatever you want it to be. Crisp and refreshing… or rich and indulgent.

Price Update Notice 🍷

Starting June 1st, there will be a $5 increase on our Original and Classic wine kits (5-week wines), and our Estate and Reserve wine kits (6-week wines).

We’ve held off on making this change for as long as possible, but rising supplier costs have finally made it unavoidable. Like everything these days, the cost of getting quality ingredients into your glass has crept up behind the scenes.

The good news? Not everything is changing. Prices for our On the House 4-week kits, as well as the Signature, Private Reserve, Passport, and Limited Edition wine kits (8-week wines), will remain exactly the same.

We’re committed to keeping winemaking affordable, approachable, and—most importantly—worth it. Even with this small increase, crafting your own wine continues to deliver exceptional value compared to store-bought bottles.

If you’ve been thinking about starting a batch, now’s a great time to lock in current pricing before June 1st. 😉

Pinot Grigio vs. Sauvignon Blanc 🍷

Crisp white lovers, this one’s for you.

Pinot Grigio is all about subtlety—light-bodied, clean, with delicate notes of green apple, pear, and a hint of citrus. It’s smooth, easygoing, and perfect when you want something refreshing without too much intensity.

Best with delicate, fresh flavours that won’t overpower it:
- Light seafood (shrimp, white fish, scallops)
- Salads with vinaigrette
- Light pasta (olive oil, lemon, simple cream sauces)
- Grilled chicken or turkey
- Mild cheeses (mozzarella, ricotta)

Sauvignon Blanc, on the other hand, brings the energy. Expect zesty acidity, bright citrus, and those signature herbaceous notes—think lime, grapefruit, and fresh-cut grass. It’s vibrant, punchy, and hard to ignore.

Handles bolder, sharper flavours and loves anything green or tangy:
- Goat cheese (classic match)
- Asparagus, green vegetables, fresh herbs
- Dishes with citrus or lime (ceviche, fish tacos)
- Thai or Vietnamese (especially with a bit of spice)
- Tomato-based dishes or salsa

The takeaway?
Pinot Grigio = laid-back and mellow
Sauvignon Blanc = bold and zippy

Both have their place… it just depends whether you’re in the mood to relax—or wake up your taste buds.
