La Torre Brunello Di Montalcino 2015, D.O.C.G. Brunello Di Montalcino

Bachelder Wismer Foxcroft "Nord" Chardonnay 2018, VQA Twenty Mile Bench

A very impressive chardonnay, with complexity, freshness and depth. I would confidently put it up against any similarly-priced Burgundy or California chard.

Bachelder Wismer Wingfield Ouest Vineyard Chardonnay 2018, VQA Twenty Mile Bench, Niagara Escarpment

Truly wonderful chardonnay. This wine will compare favorably with anything double the price or more from Burgundy. Somehow manages to have both a floral and exotic fruit nose, and an extraordinarily fresh and bright finish.

Cave Spring Csv Riesling 2018, Cave Spring Vineyard, VQA Beamsville Bench, Niagara Escarpment, Ontario

Outstanding value for money. A real crowd-pleaser, though I ultimately had to order it directly from the winery as it was never available at my LCBOs. This is one I think I will collect for a few years going forward, because I have a feeling it could age beautifully. Well-balanced, flavourful, crisp and with all the light citrus and petrol flavours I look for in my rieslings. I look forward to revisiting this in a few years to see how it's evolved.

Poderi Colla Barolo Bussia Dardi Le Rose 2015, Barolo

Very classical Barolo here. Focused fruit and tar with rose petal. Quite garnet in the glass, and I’m pretty sure it benefited from a half hour of decanting. Really amazing value for money. I’ll be buying more of this in subsequent vintages.
