Thanksgiving Tasting


It's finally Thanksgiving weekend! Hillside Liquor Store will be open all weekend long, from 9:30 am to 11 pm - even on Sunday and Monday!

To celebrate Thanksgiving, we are hosting wine tastings each day. Sunday will be Wolf Blass from Australia, with the Gold Label Riesling, Yellow Label Shiraz and the Red Label Unoaked Chardonnay. The Red Label unoaked Chardonnay is currently available in the 1L format for the same price as the 750 ml size, so there's even more wine to go around for turkey dinner!


Wolf Blass Red Label Unwooded Chardonnay displays zesty mango, passionfruit, peach and melon characters balanced with a refreshing, crisp finish.



Wolf Blass Yellow Label Shiraz displays attractive plum, spice and pepper characters that marry well with subtle integrated oak, creating a rich, well structured Shiraz with good length of flavour.


Wolf Blass Gold Label Riesling is a well balanced and refined wine with clean acidity and varietal flavours of lemon and lime supported by an attractive blossom lift.


All three of these wines have been chosen because they will pair well with the traditional Thanksgiving meal - turkey, stuffing, vegetables etc.


Come and try them all from 2-6 pm Sunday!
