Taste of 13th Street June Shipment

Enjoy this two wines perfect for summer!

EXPRESSION CABERNET ROSÉ 2022

Bright pink in the glass. The nose is intense with aromas of wild strawberries, candied raspberries, watermelon and a touch of pink peppercorn. The palate is dry, with refreshing acidity and flavours of strawberries and blood orange. The finish is long and persistent with lingering notes of candied berries.

Food Pairing: Drink well chilled on release with Caprese salad, grilled tuna or a charcuterie board.

 

CABERNET MERLOT 2021

Dark purple in the glass with an intense nose of dried blueberries, black cherries, vanilla, charred oak and milk chocolate. On the palate it is rich, ripe and full-bodied with smooth, young tannins and flavours of black cherries, plum compote, dark chocolate and a touch of smoky oak. The finish is long with drying tannins and lingering acidity.

Food Pairing: Enjoy with spice-rubbed rib eye or lamb chops.

 

Try our Expression Cabernet Rosé with:

Summer Pea, Mint and Lemon Bucatini

The summer pea, mint and lemon sauce are so fresh and delicate when paired with the Rosé.  The mint is refreshing and vibrant. The flavours in the pasta bring out lots of the wild strawberry and blood orange in the wine. The salty cheese compliments the acidity in the Rosé, making this pairing perfect to enjoy on a hot summer day or evening. Taste of summer!
