Paltrinieri Lambrusco di Sorbara 'Piria' Sorbara’s Lambrusco is different from other Lambrusco DOCs, starting with its pale color of crushed cranberries. The sluicing acidity and less evidently fruity flavors suggest something savory, elegant, and even serious which it is. ‘Piria’ is the name of the tool shown on the label to keep the wine from spilling during racking. Maceration on the skins for three days, alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless tanks. ...Secondary fermentation for about 60 days in temperature-controlled and pressurized stainless steel tanks. All native yeasts. There’s cutting acidity, tangy red fruits, and a strong dash of minerality. #beastbottleshop Wednesday through Sunday 12-8pm

Marcel Lapierre Vin de France Raisins Gaulois 2019 Gamay from Beaujolais, Burgundy, France A perfect initiation to the domaine’s wines, this bottling is designed specifically for the purpose of drinkingnot tasting, not spitting, but jolly, carefree quaffing.

2018 Domaine Savary Chablis Subtle and delicate nose opening on gleams of a true Chablis minerality.

The limestone supports every second of the tasting and brings its unmistakeable profile until the very last perceivable notes on a beautiful finale. A mineral Chablis with intensity and freshness that truly ressembles what a great Chablis with a limestone terroir can and should offer. #beastbottleshop Wednesday through Sunday 12-8pm

2017 MARSANNE VIOGNIER BEAMSVILLE BENCH At Kew Vineyards we pride ourselves on our unique vineyard, which include some of the oldest vines in Ontario. However, nothing is more special, in our opinion, than our Marsanne and Roussanne vines, which continue to thrive, despite our cool climate and the challenges it presents.... On the nose, notes of lemon and grilled pineapple are complemented by undertones of orange blossom, deepening into sweet vanilla extract and a touch of macadamia nut. With a lean acidic backbone, pineapple and citrus remain bright and structured on the palate. A touch of minerality and creaminess keeps the finish crisp, long and decadent. #beastbottleshop Wednesday through Sunday 12-8pm #beastbodegafeaturedproducts #supportsmallbusiness #ontariowines

2018 Laurent Miquel Cazal Viel Viognier Partially fermented in French oak barrels. This is a deliciously perfumed opulent wine with characteristic aromas of white flowers and vineyard peach.
