Happy Canada Day and we celebrate it with this Canadian Sparkling wine from B.C. Estate grown 34.5% Pinot and 65.5% Chardonnay that was disgorged May 2022 from the 2019 Vintage, 8 grams of sugar.

Aromas of brioche, pear, and apple. Palate of strawberry, toast, honey, flint, and citrus.

Château Tourans 2014, Ac Saint émilion Grand Cru

Medium tawny color with medium aromas of cassis, plum, forest floor, brown sugar, and perfume.

At first, the palate was chalky with little fruit but after 50 minutes, juicy red plum, cassis, balsamic, cinnamon, incense, and bay leaf. Medium plus acidity with some chalky tannins. Short finish that turns to caramelized cherry after 90 min.

Clos Bel Air 2016, Ac Montagne Saint émilion

Villa Maria Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc 2019, Marlborough

Casa Dea Chardonnay Reserve 2017, VQA Prince Edward County

Oak Chardonnay with some age on it from Prince Edward County. I was hit with ocean aromas, like oyster lemon brine, lavender, and a hint of walnut.

That oyster note shows up on the tongue, like having fresh oysters from the ocean, lemon, honey, pear, and a hint of oak and lavender. This is a great food wine that's good with hummus, cheddar, veggies, and of course seafood. With food, this is a 90+ wine.- oct 2023

Château Le Temple 2015, Ac Médoc

This a very nice Bordeaux with aromas of plum, candied cherry, herbs, cassis and oak. The palate was the same along with a nice herbal (mint) and spice taste that was backed up by soft tannins and good acidity. Great food wine

Gardet Cuvée Tradition Saint Flavy Brut Champagne, Chigny Les Roses, A.C. (375ml)

45% Pinot, 45% Meunier, and 10% Chardonnay. Lovely lavender, cheese, and toast aromas.

It's crisp on the tongue with honey, marmalade, freshly squeezed lemon, and brioche. Lovely stuff.

Ruffino Modus 2017, Igt Toscana

Viña Tarapacá Gran Reserva Carmenère 2019, Do Valle Del Maipo
