 ARRIVING AUGUST 4
This year's Cheeky Monkey Limited Releases are inspired by classic French wine styles. Enchanté Red and Déjà Vu White are New World wines made in the Bordeaux style. You are really going to enjoy this Cheeky twist on old favourites!
Enchanté Red is a vibrant blend with a certain je ne sais quoi that is sure to leave you charmed. Cherry and currant aromas rendezvous with notes of oak; rich avant-garde flavours of cherry, currant, and plum are accented by oak and a soft tannin finish. Enchanté, indeed. (California Cabernet Sauvignon, Cab Franc, Merlot)
Déjà Vu White is designed to give you a little déjà vu, but our New World twist will have you saying 'ooh la la'. Lemon, lime, and subtle grapefruit aromas lead in to the true pièce de résistance - a dry, crisp palate with fresh citrus and melon flavours, rounded out with soft oak and gentle vanilla notes. Voila! C'est magnifique! (Australia Sauvignon Blanc, California Semillion)
Medium bodied early drinking wines created in the French Bordeaux style.
Start one now and enjoy it with family and friends this Fall.

CHILLING GUIDE
Not all wines are chilled the same. This handy guide will help you get it just right.
Sparkling Wines 8◦C 2.5 hours in the fridge or 25 minutes in ice water
White Wines 10◦C 2 hours in the fridge or 20 minutes in ice water
Rosé Wines 12◦C 1.5 hours in the fridge or 15 minutes in ice water
Red Wines Wait. Red wines? Chilled? Yes!
Most people serve red wines warmer than the intended cellar temperature of 18◦C, and lighter reds like Pinot Noir and Gamay can be chilled a bit further.
