Yes, the licensing laws and regulations are dismal in Canada. I don’t really understand why. But Qobuz won’t even do business with us. I know that’s a different set of regulations, but the source issue is most likely similar.
I didn’t realise that the US have some issues like that as well.
Beatiful background too.
The background of that photo includes my son playing Nintendo, 7 Naim boxes and an SL2.
So, yes, beautiful things. 
Bless him! Was he the rugby league fan?
Yes, but he preferred Union

60/40 Carignan:Grenache
Bricking colour with lovely sweet plum and leather in a voluptuous initial palate. Has a slightly tannic finish that matches well with slow cooked short rib roast on this cold midwinter Matariki NZ night

A strictly everyday Malbec from the co-op
Notable for stating that it is suitable for Vegans
And goes nicely with spicy sausages and steak

White wine with sparkling water 
I’d never tried Juliénas until we stayed in Beaujolais a couple of weeks ago. We went to the Château de Juliénas for a tasting and bought a case of various wines. This Le Clos is their posh one, and it’s absolutely delightful. Unlike being in Beaujolais it’s bloody freezing tonight, so we had dinner indoors!

How was the Brunello?
Nice one from the Haags, perfect to Salmon from the BBQ, Fennel Salad, 30 centigrades at the balcony and some Glasto listening
