Cheers to our restaurant partners who have emerged from a tough first half of 2022 to offer you these summer pairings.

1. Bluestone Cottage: Eva Fisher recommends Vinadeis Reserve St. Martin Rosé (France) with the Smoked Salmon Breakfast.

2. The Mitchell Block: Our summer favourite is Sparkling Bertolani Oro Lambrusco (Italy), which goes beautifully with our flourless Dark Chocolate Cake served with sour cherries, sweet house-made ricotta cheese, and dehydrated chocolate mousse (the Lambrusco also pairs well with our Spicy Chorizo Pizza!). 3. Prairie’s Edge: Smoked Goldeye Eggs Benedict on focaccia with hollandaise sauce, a fruit cup, and hashbrowns is not complete without Codorníu Mediterrania Cava Brut (Spain).

4. James Avenue Pump House: Our extra-large Perogy with Creamy Dill Sauce and Grilled Kielbasa pairs well with the River Retreat Pink Moscato (Australia).

5. VG at the Fairmont: Blackened “ASC” King Salmon Fillet with a citrus and fennel emulsion, pickled apple and celeriac slaw, an orange segment micro green bundle, and chive caviar cream is complemented by the floral, cherry, and red fruit notes of the Claude Val Rosé (France).

6. 529 Wellington: Siro Merotto Extra Dry Prosecco (Italy) pairs perfectly with pan-seared, Prosciutto-Wrapped North Atlantic Scallops on a bed of sautéed spinach.

7. Beaujena’s French Table: Lobster Risotto with fennel, seared scallop, and flying fish caviar find their match in Mullineux Kloof Street Old Vine Chenin Blanc (South Africa).

8. Peasant Cookery: Its juicy acidity makes the Domaine du Haut Fresne Coteaux D’Ancenis Gamay Rosé (France) a memorable pairing for the Mediterranean Tarte Flambée’s tricky toppings: arugula pesto, crème fraîche, blistered tomatoes, artichokes, roasted red peppers, Spanish onions, feta cheese, and balsamic glaze. 9. Alena Rustic Italian: Norah Eldridge recommends Pizza Alena paired with La Ragnaie Troncone Rosso Toscana (Italy).

10. Bellissimo Restaurant & Lounge: Claude Val Rosé (France) is divine with the Aragosta pasta: lobster meat, tiger prawns, house-made bacon, tomatoes, sherry wine cream sauce, and spaghetti are topped with jumbo butter-basted scallops and green onions.

11. Bonnie Day: Lisa Kehler, our Front of House Manager, pairs Petite Pie with Chantovent Bistro des Mets Rosé (France).
