Piemonte, Italy
A structured, aromatic and perfectly spiced iteration of Piedmont’s most famous digestif. GWI’s first aperitif and digestif producer is here, ciao Chianti Vergano! Tomasso and Pietro Vergano are second-generation makers who have taken over the business for their uncle, concocting small batches of complex and unique elixirs in the backstreets of Asti, Piemonte. Traditionally made with aged Barolo, this mixture borrows its name from the bark of the cinchona, or ‘China’ tree, which is the STAR bitter botanical of this glorious digestif. Vergano prefers to use a younger, gentler and more perfumed wine base from Barbaresco, while the cinchona bark adds tickling tannins, and cinnamon, clove, cardamom, coriander, bay leaf, ginseng & rhubarb provide multi-dimensional character and nuance. Pour alongside late afternoon park-side chess battles for the ages, silk scarf tied loosely around your head to help conceal your next move, and a boombox in the distance playing Stairway to Heaven. #viniaromatizzatiFOREVER

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. Are you a licensee or producer looking to join our imports roster? Send us an email at hello@grapewitchimports.com
