A special tasting of sparkling and fruit wines plus a port.

The Ontario Wine Society presents a special tasting of unique wines which can be used before, during and after a dinner.

Most people think of fruit wines as sweet desert wines or wines made with apples. While that statement is partially true, come to this event and see and taste "other than apple" fruit wines that are available and are winning awards.

Once you have tasted the wines at this event you will be surprised to learn how dry some of these fruit wines are and how well they match with food. The Tasting Rooms Restaurant will be serving a special selection of appetizers to compliment the wines - see the menu sampler on the back of this flyer and the wines that we think will compliment the appetizers.

Bill Redelmeier of Southbrook Winery will be our guest speaker and lead us through this special tasting event. He will talk about the fruit wine industry and where it is going in Ontario. Currently there are 21 fruit wineries in Canada, with 16 of them in Ontario.

Just as VQA grape wines are winning awards, so are the fruit wines we are going taste, with several of these wines winning gold, silver and bronze.

Blanc de Blanc - 96 chardonnay  Southbrook  Vaughan
Sparkling Apple Raspberry  Archibald  Bowmanville
Jostaberry  Rush Creek  Aylmer
Blueberry  Rush Creek  Aylmer
Cranberry  Bellamere  London
Altair  Crown Bench  Beamsville
Blackberry  Southbrook  Vaughan
Port  De sousa  Vineland
Port  Bellamere  London

For a refreshing change of pace, learn how to match fruit wines with a dinner menu or a casual reception. You will be surprised at what is classified as a fruit for the wine making process.

The Tasting Rooms will be preparing a special selection of appetizers that will, as always, superbly compliment these wines.

Dinner is available after the tasting with selections from a special tasting menu.

Free parking is available at First Canadian Place. Enter from York or Adelaide Street and have your ticket validated at the restaurant.
