- Proxies Red Clay Bottle (V+)$25.00
Black tea with pinot noir grapes, cherry, & blackberry. Juicy, yet captivatingly complex. Tart, tannic, and medium-bodied, with a warm lingering finish.
- Unified Ferments Snow Chrysanthemum Bottle$23.00
Snow Chrysanthemum is a hardy, nutritionally dense varietal of Chrysanthemum which spends nearly half of its life buried under snow in China’s Kunlun Mountain area. This adaptation causes its flavor to depart substantially from the powdery delicacy of regular Chrysanthemum, and it instead presents a luxuriously warm, enveloping and verdant tea. The ferment utilizes honey to expresses the dense, floral character of this tea, and develops notes of starfruit, shaved asparagus and pollen as it ages. In body and acidity, it resembles a juicy orange wine.
- Unified Ferments Wen Shan Bao Zhong Bottle (V+)$23.00
Wen Shan Bao Zhong is a lightly oxidized, bright oolong produced in northern Taiwan. The tea has powdery floral notes, deep oat sweetness, and subtle salinity. The ferment concentrates this unique medley and produces notes of orchid, honeysuckle and fresh marzipan.

- Pearl Morissette Primesautier (V+)$29.00
Red Blend Canada Vegan Explosive, lush and indulgent - three of at least a hundred adjectives we can reel off about this Lemberger, Cab Franc and Merlot blend. Either way, there's little point in beating around the proverbial bush - this is a satiating wine of immense pleasure. The waves of spicy dark fruit on the nose and the palate are both powerful and ebullient. The mouthfeel is glossy and creaseless with an energy that pulses through the wines in bursts of hedonism. It is a truly unapologetic bottle with a distinct and original character and we have our new best friend - Lemberger - to thank for it.

- Bonny Doon Picpoul (V+)$18.00
Picpoul California Vegan “Picpoul or “lip-stinger” is known, of course for its tingling acidity, but coupled with its singular savoriness, it creates a dramatic sensation on the palate. I know that it’s impossible to smell the sensation of saltiness, but the nose of our Picpoul is maritime, coupled with a discreet suggestion of peaches, wildflowers and the (we really can’t help it, but it’s in there) ubiquitous fragrance of beeswax.

- Domaine Zind-Humbrect Zind (V+)$33.00
Chardonnay Blend France Vegan Pale bright yellow colour. The nose is elegant, announcing a mineral packed wine. The influence of the limestone is obvious: light reductive character, almost Riesling like, in need of time and air. Lots of citrus fruit on the palate, nice salivation and zesty ripe acidity, with no aggressiveness. This wine possesses a delicate language, the finish has a medium length with a broad mouthfeel and pure balance. This should be a very easy wine to use, not overwhelming showing all the characteristics of a great vineyard.
