Tinta Roriz, Souzao & Touriga Nacional, Fox Hill, California

Rosé wines can sometimes be misperceived as throwaways, less serious and/or complex than their red, white & orange counterparts, but don’t mistake the purity & focus of a great rosé for being overly simplistic or lacking in depth. Well-executed minimalism is a thousand times harder to nail than glamour or opulence, & we can’t think of a rosé that better . . .

Tinta Roriz, Souzao & Touriga Nacional, Fox Hill, California

Rosé wines can sometimes be misperceived as throwaways, less serious and/or complex than their red, white & orange counterparts, but don’t mistake the purity & focus of a great rosé for being overly simplistic or lacking in depth. Well-executed minimalism is a thousand times harder to nail than glamour or opulence, & we can’t think of a rosé that better expresses this concept than Evan Lewandowski’s. Vinified from a blend of three Portuguese red grapes grown in fellow Grapewitch Import Forlorn Hope’s Rorick Heritage Vineyard (Keepin it in the fam! We love to see it!), Tinta Roriz (AKA Tempranillo) grapes are whole cluster bladder-pressed (Wait what? Lol chill a bladder press is a cylindrical press that softly & gently presses grapes to maintain freshness & varietal character), whereas Souzao & Touriga Nacional are foot-trodden (the old-fashioned way! So romantic) prior to pressing. 2 hours of maceration on skins, 5 months of lees contact, no fining, no filtration, no sulphur. There is an uncanny directness to this wine, breathtakingly simple like how a haiku is simple— it’s a Zen rock garden, the platonic ideal of a white t-shirt, a structurally perfect red strawberry. Strawberry is the name of the game here: this rosé is like the purest essence of a strawberry distilled into a wine, more strawberry than a strawberry itself. Naturally thick Touriga skins give it a touch of cat’s tongue tannin & a delicate white tea-like texture. Medium-bodied, with an earthy mineral subplot from sandstone soils. Squeeze of blood orange, sniffing a pale pink rose. No need to overthink this one— it’s perfect fodder for a sunny Sunday, picnic in the park vibes, ideally glugged all in one go.

We don't know if you've heard this, but Canada is a truly WILD place to import wine. Each province is it's own country with super strict rules. For ages, so much of the very best natural wine never made it into the province. That is changing in such an exciting way. We started our own import company to bring you some of our very favourite wines from around the world at the sharpest prices - this allows us to travel, fall in love with a wine, and bring right to your doorstep without a middle person. Put simply, as the importer, we shave one layer off the supply chain. We offer these sweet wholesale discounts when you bundle. From 1, 3 to 6 packs you'll find serious savings. The GWI sticker - Grape Witch Imports - means not only that we strongly stand behind the producer, it also means you won't find a better deal anywhere else in town. It also allows us to source many wines just for the shop - you'll find Ontario exclusives marked GWIE - Grape Witch Import Exclusive.
