Montagne de Reims, Champagne, France
A richly berried, salty and mind-bendingly delicious still rosé Champagne from GWI’s newest Champagne producer! Timothée Stroebel is a main character in the grower Champagne movement, farming more than three hectares steadfastly organically, and with immense dedication to low-intervention winemaking. He produces some of the finest Champagnes and Coteaux Champenois from the premier cru village of Villes Allerand, in the sub-region of Montagne de Reims. Picking the fruit later than is common for this region develops phenolic ripeness, while implementing long lees aging and keeping his interference to the absolute minimum allows the pristine fruit to show off every ounce of character. Harvested by hand, the red Meunier grapes see a short maceration for a dusty-pink hue, while the chardonnay is direct pressed for fermentation. Both are then aged for 18 months in barrel before being bottled in November of 2024. FUN FACT! Only a few hundred bottles of this charmer were produced and we got 30! Strawberry candy coated popcorn, walnut skins, white raspberry, flinty minerality, white peach, flowery aromatics and bitters, corduroy texture & salted ending. Food craving and dense, enjoy alongside karaoke with your seven closest friends and BELTING out your signature song, ‘La Vie en Rose’.

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
