In spring 2018, we released our very first wine, Red Carpet! The red wine is a beautifully fruitful wine that you'll definitely wanting to roll out for all occasions! After Red Carpet, we launched Buddy's Craft Cider and  1606 Good Cheer Cider! The delicious ciders are a blend of heritage apples grown right here in the Annapolis Valley!

After that, during the summer of 2018 we launched three Cellos! We now offer Blueberry, Strawberry and Rhubarb Cellos. For those who don't know, Cello is a fortified wine that presents like a liqueur or dessert wine.  All three varieties are perfect for sipping on, or pairing with your favourite treat.

We had so much fun making Buddy's Cider and 1606, we decided to keep 'em coming! During the summer, we released our newest addition to the Buddy family, Blueberry Buddys! The rich sweet taste of our Nova Scotian blueberries with heritage apple was such a hit, we decided to make Casa Nova Cherry Cider, which we released in September 2018. 

All of the fruit we use in all of our beverages are of the finest quality, sourced from only Nova Scotian producers.

Keep an eye out for news of our new ones coming up!
