 Stay cool! You are probably thinking ...“Thanks Captain Obvious!” This
 heat is probably making you want to stay inside and start dating your
 air conditioner ... but just remember we had a long winter and summer
 in the city is beyond exciting with lots of things to do. Get outside and
 drink buckets of water. Canada’s Wonderland now has 200 attractions,
 70 thrilling rides and a 20-acre water park, and is always an amazing
 destination for all ages — you know that water park is calling your name.
 Happy August! How is there only one month of summer fun left? If you
 decide to go to a Jays Game it’s a great place to keep cool because the
 dome has been closed on extreme hot days and the beer is always ice
 cold. This is a colourful month in our city — over a million tourists are
 expected in Toronto during the August long weekend to experience
 everything Caribana has to offer. The beauty of Caribana is the varied
 audience it attracts, families across Canada and the U.S, young singles
 looking for a good time and celebrities throwing Caribana themed
 parties in clubs across Toronto. What’s happening this month ... well here

CHÂTEAU DES CHARMES ALIGOTÉ 2017 (Ontario)
Aligoté is a grape grown in Burgundy but it’s overshadowed by its more glamourous sister — the
ubiquitous Chardonnay. The only winery in Canada that grows Aligoté is Château des Charmes
in Niagara. And what a great job they do with it year after year! Their 2017 vintage is pale straw in
colour with minerally, lemon and apple flavours. Light-bodied and dry, it’s fresh and lively on the
palate reminiscent of a Chablis with a green pear finish. $15.95 • LCBO #296848

MONTES ALPHA CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2015 (Chile)
This is one of those wines that surprises you. You don’t expect the concentration of flavour and
elegance of structure in a wine that costs $19.95. Dense purple in colour, this Cabernet from the
Colchagua Valley, has an intense nose of cedar, cigar box and blackcurrant topped with a floral
grace note. Medium-bodied, dry, richly extracted, ripe blackberry and blackcurrant flavours fill the
palate ending on ripe, mellow tannins. $19.95 • Vintages #322586

CHÂTEAU LOUMELAT CUVÉE JJ LESGOURGES 2015 (Bordeaux)
This red Bordeaux from the Côte de Blaye region is well-priced. Deep ruby in colour, it has a cedary,
blackcurrant nose with a floral note. Well-balanced and firmly structured, it’s quite forward and ready
for drinking — thanks to the splendidly warm 2015 vintage. Serve it with lamb.
$16.95 • Vintages #550293

KEN FORRESTER PETIT ROSÉ 2017 (South Africa)
It’s not often I’d say ‘Buy this wine by the case’ but this rosé will surprise you for its price and quality.
A blend of Grenache with Viognier, it’s pale pink in colour with a bouquet of pomegranate and red
flowers; medium-bodied and dry, flavours of raspberry and citrus fruits fill the palate. A beautifully
balanced and elegant rosé. $12.95 • Vintages #553040

GRILLED PORK CHARCUTERIE
Gather family and friends for a weekend barbecue.
Make a trip to a farmers’ market to pick up an
assortment of Ontario pork — sausages, ribs, bacon,
cured ham, tenderloin or chops — along with some
fresh local produce. A grilled pork charcuterie board is
a great addition to any get-together!
Suggested items:
• Ribs are an absolute necessity. Cook ribs slowly over indirect
  heat or in the smoker, then finish with your signature
  barbecue sauce and sear over a hot grill.
• Sausage bites and mustard. Try grilled spicy pork sausages
  with maple mustard, or honey garlic sausages and creamy
  Dijon. Don’t be afraid to experiment!
• Pork belly burnt ends are a show-stopping hit. Sprinkle these
  tasty morsels with your favourite dry rub, smoke for a few
  hours, then toss in a mixture of barbecue sauce, beer and
  honey and let cook down to sweet candy-like pieces.
• Prosciutto-wrapped asparagus, a guaranteed way to ensure
  that even faithful carnivores eat their veggies!

Tips:
• Grilled fruit is delicious and pairs well with pork. Try peaches,
  nectarines, cantaloupe, grapes, pineapple, pears, plums or
  apples for an unexpected treat.
• Surround your delicious pork bites with an assortment of
  grilled local fruits and veggies, olives and pickles.

                                NEW BALANCE

Being a kid is tough. That’s why you need the right gear to help protect you during all the daily
adventures you will go on this year. That’s where New Balance comes in. When you’re outfitted
in durable and comfortable footwear, you can feel good about the adventure you are about to
take knowing your feet are happy. Whether it’s meeting your friends in the playground, chasing
a group of your classmates around the yard or even just hanging out playing games, when your
feet are comfortable you will perform better! New Balance has been making footwear since
1906 and we are very invested and interested in the well-being and comfort of everyone’s feet.
From Olympic athletes to kids that just need something to get dirty on their adventures, you
can always count on us to make those adventures memorable. Did you know that the original
inspiration for our footwear comes from the foot of a Chicken? It’s true! Way back in 1906,
William J Riley was watching his birds strut around the yard and noticed they had impeccable
balance due to the shape of their feet. It is from that inspiration New Balance was born to help
people achieve the same performance when they walked. There is inspiration all around you
and new ideas can be had just from observing others, so just imagine what you can take your
inspiration from, maybe even from a chicken!

      Hilroy has been helping Canadians put
      pen to paper for 100 years now.

      Great things get started in a Hilroy every
      day. Smart things, creative things, never-
      been-done-before things. All you ever
      really need to start something great is a
      pen, some paper, and that big, beautiful
      brain of yours.

      If we’ve learned anything over the last
      century, it’s that time goes by fast. So if
      there’s something in your mind or heart
      that you really want to get started, you
      should do it now.

      In honour of our 100th anniversary, we
      want to see what YOU can start with a
      Hilroy. A story? A sketch? A plan to take
      over the world? We dare you to start
      something – anything – on a Hilroy, and
      then share it with us! #Hilroy100

      It’s time to start something.
      Write now.
