David’s Fall Picks
Henry of Pelham Chardonnay
Fall is a season of gathering, and few traditions are more cherished than sharing a meal with family and friends. For roasted turkey, chicken, or other poultry dishes, this Canadian Chardonnay is an excellent choice. Aromas and flavours of pear, dried fruit, butter, and freshly baked bread are complemented by a subtle earthy character, creating a well-balanced and versatile wine.
Offering the complexity often found in premium Chardonnays at a remarkably approachable price, it’s a fantastic companion for fall entertaining!
Avondale Sky Notorious R.E.D.
Fall has a way of bringing people back to slow-cooked meals and outdoor cooking projects. Whether you’re tending a smoker for a brisket or gathering around the fire on a crisp evening, the right wine can elevate the experience.
Notorious R.E.D. offers intriguing notes of leather and smoke, complemented by the subtle complexity often found in well-aged red wines. Rich, smooth, and fuller-bodied than you might expect at this price point, it pairs beautifully with smoked meats and other wood-fired favourites, making it an excellent choice for fall entertaining.
Propeller Pumpkin Spiced Ale
Few flavours capture the essence of fall quite like pumpkin spice. For those who look forward to seasonal favourites, this brew delivers all the warm, comforting notes that make the season so memorable. Rather than focusing heavily on pumpkin, Propeller Pumpkin Spiced Ale highlights the inviting blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and other classic baking spices, creating a balanced and approachable drinking experience.
Smooth and flavourful, it’s an excellent choice for anyone looking to enjoy the taste of the season in a well-crafted ale!
