Vinerie Des Fruits focuses on<br />

luscious wines made from currants<br />

and honeyberries. Honeyberry, also<br />

known as Haskap, is a super fruit<br />

that tastes like a combination of wild<br />

blackberry and blueberry. Its fruit<br />

looks like a teardrop with a blueberry<br />

coloration.<br />

The uniqueness of the honeyberry<br />

made the Mistelle Honeyberry my<br />

favorite from Vinerie Des Fruits.<br />

lies along the banks of the Petitcodiac<br />

River in Memramcook, New<br />

Brunswick. With the assistance of<br />

winemaker Stefan St Pierre, Bill Fitch<br />

creates some outstanding holiday<br />

wines from New Brunswick.<br />

Blushing Goose, created from red gooseberries, ideally<br />

suits the season as a semi-sweet dessert wine. Find a sweet<br />

yet tart demeanor with hints of melon and strawberry.<br />

By far, my favorite is the non-vintage Maple Wine. Think<br />

caramel meets maple, blended together and aged in a<br />

bourbon barrel.<br />

Waterside Farms Cottage<br />

Winery is located off the Bay of<br />

Fundy; for this winery, winter<br />

comes early. The Dry Oak-Aged<br />

Blueberry Wine is a favorite to<br />

take off that winter chill.<br />

The holiday season comes in many forms at Richibucto<br />

River Winery.<br />

Owner Alan Hudson lived on the property 20 years<br />

before planting grapes. He started with a Christmas<br />

tree farm before growing grapes. From Christmas trees<br />

to holiday wine, there is a theme at Richibucto River<br />

Winery during the holidays.<br />

The Frontenac Reserve comes across as an almost<br />

port-like wine yet not too sweet, making a lovely<br />

dessert wine during this time of the year.<br />

Holiday Wines From New Brunswick<br />

When I think of the<br />

holiday wines from New<br />

Brunswick, I imagine<br />

a winter’s night sitting<br />

around the hearth,<br />

celebrating with friends<br />

and family while enjoying<br />

any of these fruit wines.<br />

Like the people of New<br />

Brunswick who create<br />

these cool climate wines,<br />

I found them warm and<br />

friendly on the palette. The<br />

alternative is experiencing<br />

a winter holiday in New<br />

Brunswick, visiting these<br />

wineries, and enjoying<br />

New Brunswick wine.<br />
