This Week's Wine: Freakshow Chardonnay  - Paired with Candy Corn

Known as the most approachable and fun-loving mermaid in the sea, our 2023 Freakshow Chardonnay makes a splash with a playful zest that will tantalize any sailor she comes across. Golden straw in color, her alluring aromas of apricot, citrus fruit and herbaceous notes accentuate mouthwatering flavors of Asian pear, honeydew and juicy peach pie. With a lasting, oak inspired finish, she will leave you no choice but to dive back in for more.

2nd Wine of the Week: Fonseca Tawny Port   - Paired with Snickers

Tawny-red colour fading to brick on the rim. The seductive nose displays aromas of apricot and plum with mellow undertones of butterscotch and spice. On the palate, the rich jammy flavours are lifted on the finish by an attractive crisp acidity.
