Serve up an Award-Winning Chardonnay from Prince Edward County
This Two Thousand Seventeen Chardonnay from Morandin Wines won a silver medal at the 2019 Wine Align National Wine Awards of Canada. With a 91 score, UK wine expert and writer Jamie Goode describes as “Nice pure fruit here. Shows pear, white peach and a nice citrus drive. Clean with some density to it, and a touch of nut and spice complexity. Very impressive”. Morandin Wines rows all their grapes at their estate, Sangreel Vinyards in Wellington, Ontario. They primarily supply top restaurants in South Western Ontario, including the Drake Devonshire and Toronto’s farm-to-table Montecito. There are less than 1,000 bottles available for this delicious Chardonnay. There is also free delivery with a minimum purchase of 6 bottles. Time to get Dad a fancy bottle and maybe just one for yourself.

Handmade Canadian Savoury Delight for the Foodie Dad
Bals Provisions’ Founder Crystal draws inspiration from family recipes to create unique, preserved products prepared in small batches. She works with Quebec farmers to promote the wondrous bounty of locally grown produce. This Savoury Gift Box, created for foodies, features four delicious condiments – Rhubarb and Mango Chutney, Applewood-Smoked Corn Relish, Apple Butter, and Rosemary and Onion Confit with Chardonnay. Our love affair started with Crystal’s to-die-for Boozetella chocolate spread. If your dad prefers sweet over savoury, there is also a Sweet Gift Box available at Simons. Remember, all products are made fresh on request. It takes approximately one week to prepare before shipping. You can also order other gift sets directly from Bals Provision on Instagram or Facebook. Nothing like a savoury idea from our Canadian Father’s Day Gifts.
