Sonia Brunette’s top picks
SAQ Sélection Carrefour Angrignon
“I’ve had the pleasure of helping customers for 20 years now. Being able to listen, share my discoveries, and make recommendations… that is what I love most about my job. To elevate your evening to the next level, what’s better than a bottle of Champagne? GH Martel Cuvée Victoire Brut is irresistible, plus it boasts an unbeatable qualityprice ratio! It’s great served with canapés, or to toast a special occasion. And during the holidays, make sure to buy a bottle of Rouge Gorge Vermouth, a Quebec product that’s perfect for sipping around the fire after a day spent skiing outdoors. Enjoy it on the rocks, with a twist of orange peel.”
Dianne Dagenais’s top picks
SAQ Sélection Galeries Gatineau
“For more than 32 years, I’ve been both dedicated and passionate about my job. I enjoy helping my customers, and learning more about the products offered at the SAQ. Among my finds, I was exceptionally taken with a product from Rhône: Benjamin Brunel Rasteau. This red wine boasts beautiful, robust tannins, and exudes notes of blackberry and spice. It would pair nicely with red meat, and all the abundant holiday meals! In keeping with the holiday spirit, I recommend you try Artist in Residence Vodkalight. A Quebec artisanal product that is lower in alcohol — ideal for creating cocktails to impress your guests.”
