Good Evening Fellow Oenophiles! Today we had the opportunity of trying some phenomenal food from @thelavish_to. Wether you want to indulge yourself or your loved one to a luxurious take away experience, then you should try some of the main courses from Lavish. Based in downtown Toronto, Chef Ariel and his team have designed this unique and absolutely fool proof experience for you to enjoy with your loved ones in the comfort of your home! The dishes are overly generous... and you will not be disappointed! Instruction cards are provided on how to finalize the dishes at home and impress anyone. Additionally, all the meal components come carefully crafted and placed in an elegant box that provides a luxurious experience from the get go. Forget the styrofoam containers from some of the fancy restaurants in Toronto and try these meals! Vegetarian options are available. We tried the Baked cabbage Gratin with Shallots and Garlic side (Vegetarian) and the Duck Confit Tacos with Radish Escabache Grilled corn Salad with Cilantro and Feta. We were completely impressed with the quality of the food and the easiness of completion from box to table!! Thank you @thelavish_to for the wonderful experience!

Good Afternoon Fellow Oenophiles! Today on "Sips Around the Globe" I am tasting a wine from Southern Italy, from La Puglia. An area that also brings lots of fond memories from my World travels and today I have this wonderful Cinquenocci Primitivo 2017 from @masseria_tagaro A small family farm of 40 hectares, Masseria Tagaro is located in the beautiful Itria Valley in the very heart of Puglia. Just a few miles from the picturesque town of Alberobello, the land in this area i...s known for its unique climate and terroir that is very distinct in comparison to the rest of the region. The team at Masseria Tagaro are third generation winemakers, presiding over a parcel of land based on clay and calcareous soils and concentrating on the production of Primitivo and Negroamaro. Have fun reading my personal review of the Masseria Tagaro Cinquenocci Primitivo 2017. Salud! Cheers! Prost! A Votre Sante! Saluti! Masseria Tagaro Cinquenocci Primitivo 2017 Tasting Notes The colour of this wine is a deep purple. On the nose, there are persistent aromas of red and black fruits together with chocolate, toasted oak and vainilla. Full bodied wine, dry with high acidity, soft tannins quite elegant. Notes of dark cherry, hints of raisin and leather. Medium finish with a sweetness hint. A nicely balanced wine. I am very fond of primitivos and certainly this one can easily become a staple item in my cellar. Pair it with I would paired this wine with any red meat dishes. Production Destemming of grapes and first maceration without fermentation at 4-5 C for 48 hours. Then, insemination of yeasts and fermentation with maceration until the end of the fermentation itself for soft pressing, malo-lactic fermentation. Ageing for 6 months in wood and 3 months in bottle Appellation: Puglia IGP Location: Southern Italy, Italy Variety: 100 % Primitivo Alcohol Content: 15% Price: 24.95 CAD

Happy Wednesday fellow Oenophiles! Wine is the intellectual part of a meal while meat is the material. Food without wine is a corpse; wine without food is a ghost; united and well matched they are as body and soul, living partners.... Do you agree?

Good Afternoon Fellow Oenophiles! Today I am reviewing a wine from @creeksidewine . Until I arrived in Canada back in 2011, Cabernet Franc was kind of an unknown grape variety for me and today it is one of my favourite varietals. Red Tractor Cabernet Franc was sourced entirely from the Serluca Family farm. This wine celebrates a second-generation family of growers and their vineyards from the Four Mile Creek sub-appellation. Ontario’s very best Cabernet Franc fruit can ...be found near this little Village of Virgil. Have fun reading my personal review of the Creekside Red Tractor Cabernet Franc 2018. Salud! Cheers! Prost! A Votre Sante! Saluti! Creekside Red Tractor Cabernet Franc 2018 Tasting Notes It is deep purple in colour and on the nose, there are notes of cherry, blackberry, vegetables and some earthiness is noticeable. On the palate, is a dry wine, medium bodied with medium acidity. Black cherry, plum, licorice and some fennel notes are noticeable. This wine has fine tannins and a medium finish. Overall, I enjoyed this wine very much and I would let it breath for over 30 minutes toi get the full flavours coming out of this fine VQA wine. Not only is this wine enjoyable, but it comes in a very nice and unique bottle! And the label? So cute! Pair it with I would paired this wine with any kind of grilled meat or pasta with bolognese sauce. Production 2018 was a warm vintage with a smallish crop. Fermentation was done in stainless steel tanks and barrels. Appellation: VQA Four Mile Creek Location: Niagara, Canada Variety: 100 % Cabernet Franc Alcohol Content:14 % See more

Wine should be drunk at the right temperature. The nuances of a wine’s flavour and aroma really come out at the right temperature, and it is worth noticing at what temperature you topically drink your wine and then trying it at the recommended temperature. Unlike many thermometers, this one from @vacuvin allows you to get an accurate temperature reading outside of the bottle as it snaps to the body of it. The temperatures could be obtained in Fahrenheit or Celsius and on the ...back part of the thermometer there is a helpful guideline indicating at what temperatures the different wines should be served. Compeliera and aficionados are endorsing this inexpensive thermometer for it’s accuracy and how easy it is to use.

This new addition to the wide range of wine serving and saving tools shows how a lifestyle product can revolutionize how we preserve our wines. This unique solution allows you to serve your wine without dripping, store it for a short period of time or create a vacuum to keep it fresh longer. An extra unique feature is added to the server which allows it not only to serve without dripping but also let it function as a bottle stopper. When you want to preserve your wine longer..., use the vacuum pump for vacuum storage. The vacuum slows down the oxidation process which makes it possible to enjoy your wine again at a later date. The new Vacu Vin Wine Server & Saver combines the complete wine drinking experience in one single product. Why we like it Because. - Non-drip pouring every time - Preserves your wine after opening - Vacuum indicator in the pump: clicks when vacuum is reached - Suitable for almost every bottle of wine Buy these and other wine accessories at www.e-oenophiles.com . . . . . . . . @eoenophiles #wineaccessories #winelover #winelovers #winelovers #vacuvin #winesaver #winesavervacuumpump #winevacuumpump #winestopper #wednesdaywine #winewednesday #winewednesdays
