Foreign Affair Winery

IN THIS MONTH’S THREE-PACK: 

A refreshing sparkling brut, rich chardonnay, and unique petit verdot all touched by the Appassimento process from Foreign Affair Winery.  

2019 Sparkling Rosé   
VQA Ontario  
$24.95 

Predominantly made from crushed dried riesling grapes balanced with pinot noir, this dry and tangy bubbly has wild strawberry, lemon curd, rhubarb and apricot on the palate. A natural mate with creamy cheeses, charcuterie and summer salads.   

2019 Chardonnay
VQA Niagara Peninsula
$26.95

Grilled pineapple, flambéed bananas and lemon custard delight the palate with this expressive chardonnay. The texture is beautifully creamy and the mouthfeel lush and opulent with a lingering finish. Pair with bacon-wrapped scallops and fish tacos with tropical fruit salsa. 

2016 Petit Verdot 
VQA Niagara Peninsula 
$34.95 

This earthy expression of petit verdot with a splash of cabernet franc presents a plummy, black fruit nose with fennel, green herbs and black pepper on the palate. Highly structured with upright tannins, it’s a match with prime rib or wild mushroom risotto.
