Our Somenos Tawny begins with fortified blackberry juice, cask-aged and mellowed in seasoned French oak through a Solera-style system for over five years.
Luxurious and sweet, yet balanced by tartness, it layers dried fruit, nuts, and citrus zest with rich flavours of raisin, spice, apricot, and marzipan.

A fantastic pairing - Stilton cheese.
The Tawny’s concentrated sweetness meets the salty, savoury bite of blue cheese beautifully, while its acidity keeps all that richness in balance.

But don’t stop at the cheese board. Pour it over vanilla ice cream for an easy dessert, serve it over ice, or add a splash of soda for a lighter, refreshing way to enjoy it.

A bottle with a few tricks up its sleeve.

A little taste of the cellar.

Our 2015 Somenos Pinot Noir is currently available in our reserve flight—and after over a decade in bottle, it’s a beautiful opportunity to experience how our wines evolve with time.

Bold and expressive, with aromas of smoky dark fruit, to***co leaf, and caramel, this Pinot Noir is lush and silky on the palate, with layers of sweet black cherry, spicy plum chutney, and savoury herb.

A little piece of Averill Creek history, waiting to be discovered.

You can feel it in the vineyard—harvest is coming.

The fruit is ripening, the days are beginning to shift, and there’s a quiet sense of anticipation in the rows. After a season spent tending, growing and watching, we’re getting closer to the moment it has all been leading toward.

Soon, the pace will change completely. Grapes will come off the vines, the cellar will come alive, and another vintage will begin to take shape.

But for now, we’re enjoying this brief moment before harvest begins—the last warm afternoons, full vines, and a little more sunshine, if we’re lucky.
It’s one of the most exciting times of year at Averill Creek, with so much still to come.

While summer is still holding on, there’s time for another afternoon on the patio. Walk-ins are always welcome when space allows, with reservations encouraged for weekend visits.

September Cellar Selection: Friends to Cheese

With cooler evenings comes one of our favourite things about this time of year: getting a little more cozy.
And naturally, that means pulling out a big cheese board, gathering around the table, and opening a bottle of wine.

For September’s Cellar Selection, we’ve paired three of our wines with some of our favourite cheeses—because good wine is even better with good company.

Joué Rosé + Manchego
Bright fruit and savoury character meet the nutty, slightly salty flavour of this classic Spanish cheese.

2023 Somenos Pinot Noir + Délice de Bourgogne
A rich and creamy pairing, where bright fruit, gentle tannins, and savoury spice complement the buttery character of the cheese.

Somenos Tawny + Stilton
Sweet, salty, rich, and indulgent.

Consider this your excuse to build the cheese board, and enjoy some good wine.

For September, we’re celebrating the final days of summer with a special offer on our Joue Rosé.

Bright, juicy fruit meets a delicate dried-flower savouriness in a wine that refuses to fit neatly into one one category. Joue Rosé is a vibrant,expressive, and made for sharing.

Throughout September:
$20 per bottle
$200 per case

Consider this your invitation to stock up for the final days of patio season.

While the tasting room is pouring, the vineyard is growing, and the seasons keep moving, there’s plenty happening behind the cellar doors too.

A little behind-the-scenes look at the work that goes into getting our wines from the cellar to your glass.

It takes a lot of hands to make a bottle of wine, and we are proud to have each one of them!
