Discover Canadian Elegance in a Glass: Benjamin Bridge NV Brut from Nova Scotia

At Kascadia Wine Merchants, we are proud to bring you a curated selection of North America’s finest wines, and few bottles shine as brightly as the Benjamin Bridge NV Brut—a remarkable example of Canadian sparkling wine that rivals some of the best from Champagne.

A Sparkling Star from Nova Scotia’s Gaspereau Valley

Nestled in the rolling hills of Nova Scotia’s Gaspereau Valley, Benjamin Bridge Winery has carved out an enviable reputation in a mere two decades. Known as Canada’s premier sparkling wine house, the winery’s story began in 1999 when Gerry McConnell and Dara Gordon, two Nova Scotian entrepreneurs with a passion for their province and a shared vision, turned their dreams into vineyards.

With a focus on sustainability, precision, and authenticity, and under the guidance of head winemaker Jean-Benoit Deslauriers, Benjamin Bridge has captivated wine lovers around the world.

Benjamin Bridge NV Brut: A Classic, Reimagined

Crafted from 55% L’Acadie and 45% Chardonnay, the NV Brut is a flagship expression of the Benjamin Bridge house style. As a non-vintage sparkling wine, it blends the depth of older reserve wines with the vibrancy of younger vintages, creating a wine of exceptional character and finesse.

Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: Pale golden hue with a hint of straw

• Aromas: Elegant notes of lemon rind, sea minerals, and a subtle touch of smoke

• Palate: Lush and lively, with vibrant lime blossom, delicate smokiness, and a crisp, expressive finish

• Structure: Balanced beautifully between elegance and intensity

This is a wine that’s equally enjoyable on its own or paired with food. We recommend serving it with oysters, fish and chips, or barbecued chicken for a truly elevated experience.

Where Terroir Meets Tradition

What makes Benjamin Bridge NV Brut so special? It’s all about place and purpose. The Gaspereau Valley’s proximity to the Bay of Fundy—with its dramatic tides and cool climate—creates a unique growing environment. These conditions are ideal for producing vibrant, mineral-driven sparkling wines that reflect their origin with incredible clarity.

Benjamin Bridge’s unwavering pursuit of excellence, coupled with global winemaking expertise, has made them a leader in cool-climate viticulture. Each bottle is not just wine; it's a story of Nova Scotia’s evolution as a wine-producing region.
