Recycling glass bottles and greenhouse gas emissions while transporting our wines, are constant preoccupations for our winery.
Aluminium is a perfect answer to our environmental and quality requirements. Not only is it infinitely recyclable, it also requires very little energy to produce. Furthermore, the carbon footprint generated by deliveries is greatly reduced as aluminium weighs so little. And most importantly, aluminium maintains the integrity of the wine and its effervescence.
Colfo was the very first canned sparkling wine in Québec and its popularity proved that we are ready to embrace new environmentally friendly alternatives to the traditional glass bottles. Cheers! To your good health and to planet earth’s too!
Ecologically sound, canned wine is also practical and ideal for picnics, to carry along on a walk, to pack with your fishing gear or to bring to a barbecue. Amourette is undoubtably a summer wine, in a perfect individual size (unless you want to share it, of course).

The 2024 vintage was marked by a particularly warm and sunny season, offering us an abundance of exceptional red grapes. This red year, as we like to call it, allowed us to unleash our creativity in developing new products we’ve long dreamed of.
It’s a year that was, above all, filled with a lot of love. Love that we want more than ever to share with you, one bottle (or can) at a time:
Hand-harvested 72 tons of grapes • 108 hours of juice extraction • 40 days protecting the grapes from their natural predators • 8 days spreading and smelling the manure • 85 tank transfers • 600 hours of manual weeding with a pickaxe • 10 exceptional humans pampering the vines 7 days a week from April to November!

Grapes are pressed directly as soon as they are picked, and then go through a low temperautre fermentation to preserve a maximum of fruit and crispness.
Following a short maceration and a first alcoholic fermentation, the base wine is mixed with a starter made of base wine and organic beet sugar, and canned on the same day. The bubbles are formed during the second fermentation in the can. More fizzy than sparkling, it contains twice as less pressure than our traditional methods. We do not disgorge the Amourette, as it would be impossible to open the can to extract the lees and then close it again, as we do for sparkling wine in bottles. Indeed, the Col Fondo method, which means “with the bottom” in italian, is a reference to the lees that deposit on the bottom of the bottle (or can, in our specific case) at the end of the second fermentation. The wine is neither fined nor filtered.

In the glass, the pale yellow color reveals tenacious bubbles. The nose releases aromas of apples, honey and blood oranges. On the palate, bubbles are persistent and creamy, and aromas of pears, white peaches and roasted nuts blend together. The acidity is zesty, but well-balanced by the light dosage.

In the glass, the pale yellow color has golden highlights. The nose infuses notes of honeydew melon, brioche and toasted hazelnuts. On the palate, the bubbles are ample and silky. They fade away gently, giving way to a long, airy, mineral finish.
