Cork Fine Wines Premium Offers: 689 Cellars Winery

At Cork Fine Wines in Calgary, we're excited to share the extraordinary offerings from 689 Cellars Winery. Our recent event with Curtis McBride, co-owner and winemaker of 689 Cellars, was more than just a tasting; it explored the heart of California's winemaking tradition.

Curtis, a friend of our wine store in Calgary for many years, personifies the relaxed and confident essence of the California winemaker, focusing purely on the quality of the wine. Keep reading to learn more about this experience, 689 Cerralrs and our premium offers!

The Story of 689 Cellars

Established in 2008, 689 Cellars began when Curtis McBride and Kent Rasmussen, beverage industry experts, united their passion for classic California wines with a touch of Chinese numerology, making '689' a symbol of luck and prosperity.

This unique winery is both California classic and innovative trailblazer, and it’s a brand that we’re proud to support!

Our In-Depth Journey with Curtis McBride

Our visits with Curtis have always been enlightening, covering topics from winemaking techniques to barrel toasting and even new cork technologies.

Cork has hosted Curtis many times over the years, and we're proud to have stocked his bottles since Day One! He's the quintessential Cali winemaker - relaxed, confident, and eschews pomp to focus on the juice we're tasting.

His approach blends traditional methods and modern innovations, ensuring each vintage uniquely represents the year's character. Curtis’s extensive knowledge, especially of California vintages, is invaluable, given his experience across Napa, Sonoma, Lodi, and Paso Robles.

Highlighting the Best of 689 Cellars

We are proud to present a selection of picks from 689 Cellars wines at Cork Fine Wines, each representing the pinnacle of Californian winemaking:

  • Submission - A perfect introduction for those new to wine, known for its lush, juicy fruit and softer structure.
  • Ramsay Merlot & Cabernet - The latest vintage shows remarkable improvements, especially in the Cabernet, thanks to Curtis’s enhanced role in the winemaking process.
  • The Hype - A favourite at Cork, this wine is a blend of 95% Cab and 5% Malbec, aged 12 months in new French oak, appealing to Sonoma fans with its earthy tones and hints of chocolate.
  • Lucky Draw Cabernet - Consistently excellent across vintages, it features dark bramble fruits and minerality, aged in new French oak.
  • Killer Drop Red Blend - This complex blend from several Northern California regions offers a full-bodied experience with dark cherries, chocolate, and a touch of spice.
