Jellybean Row (Strawberry-Prartridgeberry) medium 750ml
Jellybean Row is a name that has long been used to describe the colourful,
characteristic rowhouses of downtown St. John¹s. Their vibrant hues
and whimsical tones inspired the naming of Auk Island¹s strawberry-partridgeberry
wine. The subtle flavour of strawberries present a hint of sweetness
that tames but does not diminish the tartness of the Newfoundland partridgeberries.
Together they create a light-bodied wine that is best served chilled.

they have blown trains off their tracks. The Wreckhouse inspires awe
with both its beauty and its punch. Wreckhouse wine, made from hand-picked,
locally grown partridgeberries, offers the tantalizing taste of apple
with the special “zip” of the wild partridgeberry. It’s a combination
that’ll blow you away.

Republic (Raspberry-Rhubarb)
750ml
Republic is a bold stand-out from other wines, uniting the sharp flavour
of rhubarb with the refreshing taste of plump, juicy raspberries. The
result is a crisp, fruity wine with an undercurrent of sweetness. Blended
with pure iceberg water, together these three elements reflect the pink,
white and green of the Newfoundland Republic flag.
Serve Republic ice-cold on its own, or in a glass with ice and sparkling
water for a delicious spritzer that makes wine coolers taste lame by
comparison. Or use it to make pitchers of sangria at your next party.
