McGuigan The Brothers Cabernet Sauvignon

Since 1880, four generations have built up the McGuigan name with the aim to make their brand synonymous with Australian winemaking- and one can argue that they’ve done just that. With high quality and varietally true wines, their home is the Hunter Valley but source grapes from all over South Australia, including McLaren Vale, Langhorne Creek, and Barossa Valley.

Chief winemaker and CEO Neil McGuigan has over 30 years of experience and has become one of Australia’s most recognized and awarded winemakers. With values that include quality, consistency, and innovation, McGuigan Wines strives to use only the highest quality fruit from vineyards in South East Australia, making something that everyone can buy.

Whispering Angel Rose

Located on elevated land near Gorges de Pennafort, 25 km northwest of the ancient Roman city of Frejus on the Mediterranean coast, the first traces of the Château’s site date back to times when Gauls (Celtic people of mainland Europe in the Iron Age and the Roman period) used the elevated land as a lookout point, to spot intruders coming by boat into the Gulf of Frejus. 

Spearheaded by Sacha Lichine, son of famous Alexis Lichine (wine lover, importer, Bordeaux château owner, educator, and salesman), he’s been involved in just about every aspect of the wine business, from work in the vineyards to the sale of the final product. He started his wine journey by working at his family properties Château Prieuré Lichinne and Château Lascombes during the summers of his youth and soon found himself leading American tourists on guided trips through Europe, visiting the finest restaurants and wineries in the process. From there, he dabbled in many different importing endeavours involving wines from all over France but most notably, Bordeaux and Burgundy.

Nothing compares to his acquisition of Château d’Esclans in Provence back in 2006; Sacha’s ambitious efforts to develop more seriously produced Rosé has paid of with a successful range of wines that include: Whispering Angel, Garrus, and The Palm. In 2019, Louis Vuitton Möet Hennessy (LVMH) purchased a 55% stake in the company with Sacha retaining 45%, establishing a new partnership.

Estandon Brise Marine Rosé

Legend has it that Phoenician ships, carried on a steady sea breeze (“brise marine”), landed on the Mediterranean coast in the 6th century BC. They brought with them the knowledge of vine growing and winemaking. To celebrate the legend, the Estandon winemakers have created this “Brise Marine” vin de pays and invite you to taste the fruit of their region’s history.

NS Spirit Co. - Blue Lobster Pear Ginger Vodka Soda 6pk

Inspired by and made for Nova Scotia’s culture of kitchen parties, storytelling, good times with friends and family, and that laidback Maritime lifestyle; founded in 2015 in Pictou County, Nova Scotia Spirit Co. focuses on producing quality, small-batch spirits at an everyday price.

Their core lineup of spirits; Fisherman’s Helper Rum, Willing to Learn Gin, and Blue Lobster Vodka were all inspired by an ad found on the door of the building that would eventually house the distillery: Commercial lobster fisherman from Ballantyne’s Cove Antigonish County is looking to hire a fisherman’s helper for the summer. Basic requirements: sober, alert, willing to learn.

Erdinger - Weissbier

Founded in 1886, the Erdinger Brewery – dedicated to the brewing of wheat beer and wheat beer only – resides in the quaint Bavarian town of Erding, 30 minutes northeast of Munich. Erdinger Weissbier pioneered the awareness and consumption of wheat beer outside of the Bavarian region where it has its roots, remaining in strict compliance with the Bavarian purity law and secondary fermentation that have history and tradition in the region. Erdinger Weissbeer continues to be the world’s largest producer of wheat beer, and one of the last remaining privately owned breweries, still owned and operated by the Brombach family today.

Campari Aperitivo

Surprisingly, Campari actually pre-dates the unification of Italy as a nation. Gaspare Campari created the secret formula in 1860 in Novara, Italy, and it has remained a mystery since. Campari’s first production facility was opened in 1904 and under the leadership of Gaspare’s son, Davide, Campari spread throughout Europe and the wider world. Campari has become a juggernaut in the drinks business and is sold in over 190 countries and has become an essential cocktail ingredient. Its vibrant red hue is iconic in the beverage industry and was originally coloured with carmine dye made from crushed cochineal insects but was coverted to artificial colouring in 2006.
