Vines Wine Merchants

Vines Wine Merchants One of Alberta's most qualified wine boutiques with 4 certified sommeliers, a glorious whisky wall and a superb selection of wine, spirits and craft beers

Wouldn't it be fun… to come to a local wine shop where you can find neat wines with interesting character and staff that knows about wine? You’ll be hard-pressed (wine pun intended!) to find a more knowledgeable or more enthusiastic group of people to show you around a wine shop and help point out some of the great value and award-winning wines on the shelves. Having fun selling great wines since

2004

After a long, hard day of wine tasting, there’s nothing better than a refreshing beer. So, come check out our import and spcialty beer selections. You’re also going to love our single malt offerings. We have an entire wall devoted to everything from a selection of silent still bottles (distilleries that are now closed) to 40-year-old Highland Park! There are over 120 hard-to-find and outstanding bottles to choose from.

With a 50% Syrah 30%, Grenache noir 10%, Carignan 10%, Mourvèdre blend, all organic, this wine has a multi layeredcomplexity of violets, liquorice and olive’s notes with very soft tannins and fruity notes.

Great new product available here at Vines
2012 Romanico (100% tempranillo) from the Toro region of Spain.
Robert Parker himself gives this beauty 92pts, describing its "a full-bodied, opaque purple-colored wine with superb richness as well as lots of blackberry, charcoal and cassis intermixed with licorice, new saddle leather, pepper and bouquet garni. This nearly viscous red should drink beautifully for 7-10 years."
