WHAT TO BRING

No matter the occasion, take the opportunity to try some fresh LCBO offerings. The joy of novelty and exploration may lead to the discovery of a new favourite. New wines for spring sipping

Despite being low in sugar, Bask Sauvignon Blanc ( LCBO 16777, $12.95) remains characterful. A burst of melon accompanies a subtle herbaceousness on the way to a crisp finish.

19 Crimes Snoop Dogg Cali Red LCBO 18116, $19.95

Snoop Dogg’s first foray into the wine world is a blend of Petite Sirah and Zinfandel. Top notes of blackberry, cherry and leather luxuriate in a wide, off-dry, oaked body.

Vida Orgánica Malbec LCBO 17753, $10.95 This vibrant purple Argentinian Malbec leans minutely tannic and expresses damson plum, blackcurrant and green bell pepper.

J. Lebègue Lussac Saint-Émilion LCBO 17900, $18.95

With an unctuous rich- ness of dark red fruit on the nose that emerges into a peppery mid- palate and lightly tannic finish, it’s a scintillating companion to a lamb roast.
