Wine Lovers' Notes:

On the Bottle

featuring the poem
Draw
by Steve Venright

Draw a deep breath made out of stone.
Take a small step made out of stars.
Sleep until you wake up dreaming.

In the Glass

A great Chardonnay growing season — cool and long. Classic aromas and bright acidity give this wine youthful traits while at the same time being evolved. Lemon, caramel and butter notes are laced throughout. Drink now to 2013.

In Print

"Golden in colour with toasty-buttery smells with hints of cinnamon and marmalade. The palate retained a spiciness with good acidity. Marmalade aspects from the nose also follow in the mouth along with nutmeg, cinnamon, butterscotch and vanilla… this was a big, mouth filling wine full of flavour".
- Michael Pinkus, OnTheRoadWithWineGuy.com

Steve Venright

Steve VenrightSteve Venright’s work has been described as “Baudelaire meets Lewis Carroll meets Monty Python.” Considered one of the most exciting poets on the contemporary scene, the Toronto-based author has also released several remarkable recordings through his Torpor Vigil Industries record label. TVI and Coach House Books collaborated in 2004 on a lavishly produced double-CD called A Natural History of Southwestern Ontario featuring soundscapes by Venright and the voice of poet Christopher Dewdney (upon whose texts it was based). Selected for inclusion in the 2004 anthology Surreal Estate: 13 Poets Under the Influence, Venright’s work continues to be cutting edge.
