Wine as aromatherapy… Indulge their most sensual side with these two aromatic beauties. Surround them with other temptations like bath salts, essential oils and chocolate truffles and an evening at home becomes an escape to the spa. Seductively exotic, Obsession Symphony 2019 (LCBO 295931, $15.95, enjoy 8 Bonus Air Miles, Nov 29 - Jan 2) is full of the scent of honeysuckle and ginger flowers; the taste conjures up ripe melon and lychee with a touch of sweetness that leads to a crisp, clean finish. Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 (LCBO 461053, $19.95) has a nose that bursts with aromas of intense dark fruits, cinnamon, clove and subtle oak aromas, accented by toasty oak and finishing with long round soft tannins.

These two cool-climate varietals are both Certified Sustainable California. Pair them with organic, sustainable gifts like a bamboo cheese board, beeswax food wraps or heirloom tomato seeds. Ocean breezes and morning fog cool the vines that give us La Crema Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2018 (LCBO 719435, $34.95, enjoy $3.00 off, Nov 9 – Nov 29), enhancing its spicy red berry aromas and keeping everything fresh. SLH Reserve Chardonnay 2018 (VINTAGES 958975, $34.95, enjoy 10 Bonus Air Miles, Nov 29 – Jan 2) is a food-friendly gem, balancing Meyer lemon and honeycomb with subtle oak.
