White Wine
Beck Hartweg, Granit 2018
Alsace, France dry wine. Not our usual funky wine, but simple delicious. Pairs well with most menu. Definitely a worth a try. Stone fruit and mineral/saline. Blend of Pinot noir, pinot gris, and Riesling. Still considered as a white white with skin contact.

Laurent Saillard, Lucky You
The grapes for this cuvée come from a section of Clos Ro che Blanche plated in 1973. The cépage is roughly 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Chardonnay. The grapes are whole cluster pressed into stainless steel where the juice ferments slowly until the spring. Malolactic conversion took place before the wine was fully dry. It is bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal additional Sulphur. 13% ABV
CheckMate Vineyard {Little Pawn Chardonnay} 2016
100pts!!! The First canadian wine to recieve 100pts. A terroir that produce elegant Chardonnays year after year. There are aromas of citrus, sage and licorice. The palate is a medley of fruit flavours including Mandarin orange mingled with subtle oak notes (the wine aged 16 months in French oak, 47%).
Cosmic, Connexió Còsmica 2019
2019 Xarel-lo, Chardonnay, and Muscat of Alexandria Connexio Cosmica Cosmic 2019 ORANGE WINE, natural wine, organic, beautifully textured skin contact wine. Flavours of celentine, lemon, and oranges. A gorgeous bottle and perfect for sipping on a patio
CheckMate Vineyard {Little Pawn Chardonnay} 2015
100 pts, John Schreiner The wine begins with floral notes recalling citrus, orange and vanilla. The bright acidity gives the wine a lifted freshness, a lovely purity of fruit on the palate and a lingering finish. It is impossible to find anything negative about this wine. The whole Vancouver area has very few bottles of this wine, and we're lucky to even have them.
Michael Wenzel, Wild + Free Lockvogel
is a white blend of Muskateller, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Gently macerated with skins and aged in stainless steel for 8 months, this wine shows its floral and tropical notes beautifully. Think elderflower, passionfruit and lychee.
Andi Weigand, Rose 2020
This rosé shows how fresh and juicy the wines are that come from Keuper soils. Directly pressed Pinot Noir and Domina grapes from 35 year old vines. Fermented in used oak barrels and left on the yeast for 9 months. Crisp red forest fruit and fresh spring water. So refreshing and invigorating that it even banishes the hangover from the day before, should that ever be necessary.
Michael Wenzel, Wild + Free Voodoo Child
displays notes of rhubarb, red currant and earth all woven into a wine with body due to 8 months on fine lees and neutral oak ageing. It is skin-fermented, resulting in an orange wine but with a colour closer to red, due to Pinot Gris' dark berry colour. The phenols extracted through skin fermentation are immediately present on the nose and on the palate, but the wine itself is well-structured
Michael Wenzel, Autark Furmint aus dem Quarz
is a vivid white wine that is very important to Michael and the history of his family's winemaking. Furmint and Austria would not be the same without the Wenzel family, who courageously and wittily smuggled historic clones from Hungary to Austria during the days of the Iron Curtain and Cold War. Back then, there were severe consequences if caught, but they risked everything to save the variety

Red Wine
Judith Beck, Blaufrankisch Bramble

The Al Dente is made from a blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Riesling and Pinot Blanc grapes that are harvested early. Spontaneously fermented and macerated for 2 weeks, it was aged in large old oak barrels for 10 months atop the lees. Cloudy cherry red in colour and has smoky and earthy notes of dried cranberries, orange peel, red currants, and clay
Frank Family Vineyards - Pinot Noir 2012%25, 750ml Wine 12%25
Frank Family Vineyards 2012 Carneros Pinot Noir has a bright ruby core and opens with aromas of black cherries, raspberry and spice. As the wine opens, floral notes reminiscent of hibiscus flower and potpourri blossom in the glass. The palate is fleshy, loaded with fresh berry flavors and lush savory notes that lead to roasted chestnuts and toffee flavors. The tannins are refined and provide elegance and structure.

We enjoy wine at special moments together with friends and family. "I Do" was created to be a part of those celebrations.

It was made by fermenting Wildflower Mead completely dry and then adding fresh grapefruit rinds that we got from our friends at Good Life Juice, in Nanaimo, as a by-product of their own grapefruit juicing!

My wife and I went here for our 16th anniversary dinner. The restaurant was quiet for a Friday night. Service was excellent, our server helped us navigate the menu as first time diners. We ended up going with the Chef’s Menu, at $65 per person, the server explained it was a great choice as it was 7+ plates served consecutively that had connected flavours and seasonal ingredients. It was 5 starters, 2 mains and 3 desserts!

It was incredible! Every plate was...

Being a vegetarian, it's always difficult to find a good restaurant with tasty food. But I was pleasantly surprised with this restaurant. Specially their appetizers. If you love Asian veg food then I would highly recommend this restaurant. Their cocktail choices are limited but really good. I tried their mango coconut cocktail and it was delicious. I went with my husband for a date night and we had amazing time.
