Tantalus — Riesling
A wine that’ll simply go with everything, Tantalus is one of the top Riesling producers in Kelowna — with nearly a century of experience. The Riesling grape flavours can vary to give you notes of green apple, to citrus, to tropical. If you’re stuck on the perfect bottle, this one’s your best bet!
Château de Fieuzal Rouge — Pessac Léognan 2020
Coming all the way from Bordeaux, this juicy wine will first present a sweet aroma of mulberries and blackberries that mix with a hint of licorice, violets and red fruit compote. This is a full-bodied, rich wine that’ll take you on a journey through ripe acids and sweet, powdery tannins.
Belvedere Vodka — Chrome Edition
Winner of the Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2022, this bespoke Polish vodka is a unique addition to any party. Belvedere always contains zero additives as dictated by Polish vodka regulations, so you’re only getting Polish rye and purified water that’s distilled by fire. Na Zdrowie!
Grand Marnier — Cordon Rouge
A cognac that’s ripe with orange essence, Grand Marnier is the quintessential component of most holiday liquor menus — and it’s not hard to see why. Its sweet, zesty blend of vanilla and orange harmoniously blend to create a welcome addition to any cocktail. This one also won a gold at the 2022 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
Taittinger — Brut Réserve
If the holidays aren’t celebratory enough for some sparkling, then what is? The Brut Réserve has very soft bubbles, creating a silky smooth texture that compliments the flavours of lemon, biscuit, fresh peach, and pie crust on the nose. Yes, this is coming from the region of Champagne, France, so we’re using the term correctly!
Phillips Brewing — Reindeer Mystery Mixed Pack
Get the gift that craft beer lovers will love with Phillips Brewing’s holiday-themed mix pack — featuring eight unique brews to fit anyone’s taste. The styles you’ll get here take inspiration from across the world, like a New Zealand PIlsner, a Kviek IPA, and Scottish Wee Heavy, to name a few. Basically, this mixed pack is like if your Secret Santa actually gave you a great gift!
Head down to your local BCLIQUOR today and try some of these holiday favs for yourself! Enjoy responsibly.
