VEGAN WINE We all know that wine is made from grapes; natural yeasts convert sugars in the grape juice to alcohol. Pretty straightforward, right? So why are there some wines that are deemed not vegetarian or vegan? The reason that not all wines are If you have any questions about any wines, PEI Liquor’s in-store Product Advisors are here to help! They have extensive product knowledge and in-store resources to help you find the right wine for you. Additionally, a great resource for researching vegan and vegetarian wines is Barnivore, which has catalogued alcoholic drinks
considered vegetarian or vegan has to do with the way they are clarified, a process called “fining”. Young wines are naturally quite cloudy (think of an unfiltered beer) and are full of tiny, harmless particles like tannins, proteins and phenolics. Most wines, if left to age long enough, will clarify on their own, but most producers add a clarifying agent to speed the process along. The suspended molecules in the wine coagulate around the fining agent and are then filtered out. Traditionally, the fining agents used were casein (a milk protein), gelatine (animal protein), isinglass (from fish) and albumen (egg and protein). These fining agents are inexpensive and do a great job creating a clear, bright wine that appeals to customers, which is why they are so wisely used. Even though the fining agents are filtered out almost completely, some customers prefer wines that don’t use animal products or by-products in the fining process. Many winemakers use clay-based fining agents to create vegan-friendly wines. Additionally, many winemakers are choosing to let their wines clarify naturally, without any fining agents at all. Wine labels typically do not indicate details on fining agents. Fining agents only need to be listed when it is a potential allergen like eggs or fish and it is present in the wine at a level of 10 parts per million or higher.
of all types. You can peruse their carefully researched list of wines, beers and spirits to help you identify products that are in line with your preferences.

GROWING STRONG
Even though the apple trees at Deep Roots Distillery are bare, that doesn’t mean early spring is a time to sit back and watch the flower buds come out. Mike and Carol Beamish are hard at work this season getting ready for the busiest time of year at their farm and distillery. What started as a 200-tree apple orchard in 1990 has been growing strong ever since; they now tend over 2 acres of trees and they’re also certified organic. Mike was inspired to start his new business in 2012 and after attending a distilling workshop at BioFoodTech, the idea of opening his own distillery started to “ferment”. In July 2014, their signature “Island Tide” spirit was released and was soon followed by their Maple, Blueberry, Haskaap and Spiced Apple liqueurs, Apple Brandy, Apple Ice Wine and an award-winning Absinthe. Deep Roots uses locally-grown produce from all over PEI and even a little from Nova Scotia to keep up with demand. Most of their products are made by distilling pure cane sugar into a neutral white spirit, and are then blended with local blueberries, haskaap (camerise) berries, apples and spices, and even local maple syrup from their sons’ small-batch Maple operation. They also use some of the “seconds” from their orchard and from other local apple growers to ferment various kinds of apples into their apple brandy, or into apple ice wine. This means that many of the clean, non-bruised apples that are too small or misshapen to be sold as eating apples won’t go to waste. Instead, they’re given a new life as delicious spirits. Their apple brandy is aged in oak barrels for two years for a well-balanced, aromatic, smooth and rich spirit. As a bonus, the empty brandy barrels are then passed on to Hazel Grove Sugar
Shack, the same operation that supplies the maple syrup for their Maple Liqueur, who in turn use them to create their Brandy Barrel Aged Maple Syrup. Mike has some great ideas for pairing their products with some Island ingredients. Many of their liqueurs are on the sweeter side, so they make a great ice cream topper! They are also delicious swirled into coffee or tea, added as a “dosage” to champagne, or incorporated into dessert sauces. Their apple ice wine is a lovely pair for smoked and blue cheeses. Mike especially recommends their Island Tide as the base for a classic Caesar, as it’s neutral-tasting with enough of an edge to add a really unique character. As the seasons change this spring, Mike and Carol will be busy with the yearly task of pruning the trees in their orchard. They are also busy distilling their spirits before the weather turns warm, so the cooler temperatures can help with the passive cool- ing system required in the distilling pro cess. The summer is their busiest time of year, with an orchard to maintain and plenty of visitors stopping by their beautiful prop- erty and distillery to take a tour and pick up a couple of bottles from their shop. The farm and shop is open to the public from June to October, where they offer tours, tastings and exclusive products. Mike and Carol also have a stall at the Charlottetown farmers market for most of the year. Visit them online or stop in for a visit to experience some true Island flavours and hospitality!

The Vines is PEI Liquor’s fine wine program. The Vines offers allocated, hard-to-find products for explorers and collectors with a passion for world- class wines. PEI Liquor offers 200 Vines products on a continuous basis but, occasionally, we also source outstanding products as one-time purchases to broaden the portfolio and put forward new and exciting finds for discerning wine lovers. The current Vines Special Release features vibrant South African wines from the Iconic Rustenberg Winery. About The Rustenberg Estate The Rustenberg Estate was founded in 1682 and is nestled in the valley of the Simonsberg Mountain in South Africa’s premium wine region, Stellenbosch. Vineyards producing the grapes for Rustenberg’s
wines climb the rich red slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain. A range of slopes and aspects allows site specific plantings that enhance varietal characteristics. All grapes are hand-harvested in the early mornings and all vineyard blocks vinified separately, then blended for added complexity. About South Africa South Africa is ranked the world’s eighth largest producer. South Africa boasts some of the oldest viticultural soils in the world, traceable back some 1000 million years ago. The constant interplay between these ancient soils, soaring mountains, valley slopes and coastal breezes results in a natural environment exceptional in its biodiversity. Diversity of soils is matched by diversity of climate and geography, creating a treasure trove of winemaking possibilities.

TASTING NOTES Cono Sur Bicicleta Viognier 15.69 09482Z, 750 mL Chile
TASTING NOTES
TASTING NOTES
Sauvignon Blanc is the flagship grape variety of New Zeland and is typically a very crisp aromatic wine. Sauvignon Blanc tends to be fermented in stainless steel vats, which results in a clean, crisp flavour. Villa Maria has a pale straw colour, intense aromas of gooseberry, lime and asparagus, and flavours of bell pepper, gooseberry, citrus with a crisp finish. When it comes to pairing, think white meat, and shellfish.
Cono Sur is located in the Colchagua Valley of Chile. On the nose this wine has lovely sweet fruit aromas of apricots, peaches, pineapple and citrus with oak notes. Flavours of grapefruit, peach and green apple in the glass. Viognier will pair nicely with Easter ham.
Santa Margherita Winery is in the Alto Adige region of north eastern Italy. The wine estate was founded in the early 1930’s by Gaetano Marzatto. Marzatto set out to make wines from a single varietal that spoke of the region as much as the grape. Today Santa Margherita wines are known for their easy drinking along with their modern winemaking edge. Fully ripe pinot grigio grapes are harvested by hand from Alto Adige vineyards in the Italian Alps to ensure the clusters remain whole and keep their delicate aromas and flavour. Light bodied, dry in style, clean and crisp with aromatics of apple, pear and white floral notes, this pinot grigio has flavours of golden delicious apples. Enjoy with seafood, pasta, and rice dishes.

Viña Perez Cruz can be found in Maipo Valley, long regarded as Chile’s premium red grape producing region. The Estate’s vines are planted on a variety of soils that gives the grapes distinct flavour characteristics.

Perez Cruz is a complex red wine loaded with black fruit, red apple skin, olive, earthy aromas and spice. Bring on the curry.
Ravenswood was founded in 1976 by Joel Peterson. The winery is a pioneer in producing Zinfandel from some of Napa and Sonoma’s most treasured vineyards. Tantalizing aromas of black cherry, raspberry and blueberry along with hints of oak await you. On the palate smooth flavours of red fruit and spice. Serve this zin with rich pasta dishes or pulled pork.
Bogle winery is in Clarksburg, a wine appellation located in California’s Sacramento River Delta region. The nose of this wine is bursting with tropical fruit, honeydew melon, and pineapple and on the palate with sweet peach on the finish. This wine will pair nicely with Asian dishes and shellfish.

Directions: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the dried beans with 6 cups of water. Let stand for 8 hours or overnight. Drain the beans, then place in a medium saucepan and cover with new, fresh water (about 6 cups again). Bring the beans to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Drain and rinse well. Meanwhile, combine all the remaining ingre- dients in a crockpot. Add the prepared, rinsed beans and mix everything together. Add enough fresh water to barely cover the mixture (about ⅔ of a cup).

Make sure you discard the used cooking water and use fresh where indicated!

Salt and pepper 1 Tbsp canola oil 1 large onion, chopped 3 cloves of garlic, smashed 1 Tbsp fresh ginger, minced 1 Tbsp smoked paprika 1 cup ketchup ¼ cup maple syrup
Directions: In a medium bowl mix together everything except the salmon to make the curing mixture. Stir together well. Lay the salmon in a 9x9 pan or casserole dish, then pour the curing mixture overtop. Flip the salmon over and make sure it’s well coated in the mixture. Cover the salmon in plastic wrap, then refriger- ate for at least 8 hours, or overnight. Unwrap the salmon, then use a damp cloth to remove the cure. Slice the salmon as thin as you can and then serve ice cold right away, with thinly sliced red onions, caper, cream cheese and crackers. Note: once you remove the cure from the outside of the salmon, you can keep it in a tightly sealed container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
1 tsp worcestershire sauce Worcestershire 1 Tbsp Maritime Madness Chipotle Garlic hot sauce Juice and zest of 1 lime ½ - 2/3 cup Deep Roots Island Tide (to taste) Directions: Combine the cut up chicken and the ginger ale in a large dutch oven. Season generously with salt and pepper and bring to a bare simmer over low heat and cook for 30 minutes, or until the chick- en reaches an internal temperature of 165F. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat the canola oil over medium-low heat. Add the onion and garlic and ginger and saute for about 5 min- utes, until the onions are soft. Add the remaining ingredients and stir well, then lower the heat to low and simmer for about 20 minutes while the chicken cooks. Let the sauce cool a bit, then puree with a hand blender or food processor until very smooth. Drain the chicken well (discard the cooking liquid) and pat it dry. Heat a grill or BBQ to 425F and brush well to remove any charred bits. Place the chicken on the grill and brush right away with the BBQ sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then turn and brush generously again with more sauce and cook another 3 minutes. Enjoy right away. You can keep any leftover sauce in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Maple Walnut Glazed Carrots Serves 6-8
Maple Creme Caramel Makes 6 For the caramel: ⅔ cup granulated sugar ⅓ cup water 3 Tbsp maple syrup For the custard: ⅓ cup granulated sugar 1 tsp pure vanilla extract 2 eggs 4 egg yolks ⅓ cup maple syrup ½ tsp salt Boiling water
2 lbs carrots, peeled and cut in half lengthwise ¼ lb salted butter ¼ cup maple syrup 2 sprigs of fresh thyme 1 sprig of fresh rosemary Fresh roasted walnut halves or pieces Salt and pepper to taste Directions: Stir together first 7 ingredients in a large slow cooker. Cook covered on high for 4 hours, then take the cover off and cook another 2-3 hours, until the onions are very soft and the mixture is slightly soupy. Turn off the slow cooker and stir in the syrup and vinegar. Cool the mixture for about 30 minutes, then carefully divide into four clean 250 ml mason jars.

Directions: Place 6 ramekins in a 9 x 13 inch casserole and preheat your oven to 300F. Make the caramel: combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over me- dium-high heat. As the water evaporates, the sugar will begin to carmelize. You can gently swirl the sugar in the pan a bit to help it to cook evenly, but don’t use a utensil. When the sugar is an even dark amber colour, remove from heat and immediately add the maple syrup, swirling again to combine. Divide the maple caramel between the ramekins and set aside. Make the custard: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and maple syrup. In a heavy-bot- tom saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, vanilla and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Turn off the heat. Slowly add the hot milk mixture to the egg mixture while whisking vigorously. Pour the warm milk and egg mixture into the ramekins (on top of the cooled caramel). Pour the boiling water into the casserole dish so that the water comes about halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 40 minutes, then carefully remove the ramekins from the baking dish, allow to cool com- pletely, then transfer to the fridge to chill for one hour. To serve, run a sharp knife around the edge of the chilled custard and then quickly invert onto a serving plate.
No Churn Maple and Vanilla Bean Ice Cream Makes about 1 ½ Litres 1 can sweetened condensed milk 4 Tbsp maple syrup ¼ tsp salt 1 vanilla bean 2 cups chilled heavy cream (35%)
MAPLE DESSERT RECIPES
Directions: Use a paring knife to split the vanilla bean in half lengthwise and then scrape the seeds out. Place the seeds in a medium mixing bowl and keep the pod for another use. Add the condensed milk, maple and salt to the vanilla bean seeds and stir well to combine. In a separate large bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Add half the whipped cream to the maple mixture and fold it in gently, then add that mixture to the rest of the whipped cream and fold it in until barely combined. Pour the mixture into a large (2L) tupperware container, snap on the lid and place in the freezer for at least 3 hours to set. Keeps well in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Maple Fudge with PEI Sea Salt Makes one 9 x 9 pan 2 cups maple syrup 3 Tbsp butter 1 cup heavy cream (35%) 1 tsp vanilla Prince Edward Island Sea Salt (to taste) Directions: In a large saucepan, bring the maple syrup and butter to a boil over medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes. Add the cream (it will bubble up - be careful!) and stir. Place a candy thermometer on the side of the pot and cook for another 3-5 minutes, until the thermometer reads 245F (or 118C). Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Use a whisk to beat the mixture for about 5 minutes, until it thickens. Pour the mixture into a 9 x 9 inch baking pan and sprinkle as much sea salt as you like overtop of the fudge. Let cool completely before slicing.
Maple Baked Stuffed Apples Makes 4
4 Pink Lady, Honey Crisp or other baking apple ¼ cup butter ¼ cup maple syrup 1 cup rolled oats ¼ cup raisins 1 tsp cinnamon Directions: Preheat your oven to 350F. Use a melon baller to scoop the core out of the apple- be careful not to scoop a hole in the bottom! Place the apples upright in a 9 x 9 baking pan. You may need to trim the bottom of the apples to get them to stand up straight. Melt the butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl for about 20 seconds, then mix in all the remaining ingredients. Divide the mixture between the 4 apples, spooning it into the hollowed out centers. Don’t pack the mixture in- it’s okay for it to be mounded up on top. Bake the filled apples for 25 to 30 minutes, until the apples are softened but not completely mushy. Let cool for about 10 minutes, then enjoy warm topped with ice cream.
