San Polo Rubio 2021, I.G.T. Toscana
Tuscany, Italy$21.70
Sangiovese with 10% merlot and 5% cabernet franc.
Was very good, double thumbs up; buy again for sure. Had it with spicy sausage, pasta. Open at least 30 mins, 45 better. Nice garnet colour

Torbreck Old Vines Grenache/Shiraz/Mourvèdre 2022, Barossa Valley, South Australia
South Australia, Australia$24.95
A notably deep and dense old vine GSM with youthful concentration. Bramble, blackcurrant, blueberry and white pepper mark the palate. Very salty with firm but not astringent tannins and an undercurrent of freshness.
New Yr's eve 2024 - stood very well against bottles more than twice its price. Excellent value.

Hidden Bench Estate Riesling 2020, VQA Beamsville Bench, Niagara Escarpment
Ontario, Canada$24.95
This NWAC 2023 gold medalist sports wonderful lift, purity and precision. Riesling's aromatic prowess is front and centre with lifted, ripe pear/melon fruit, subtle petrol and a lovely spice I often get from older vine Niagara rieslings.
Apr 2025 - found it a bit sour on the finish

Château Gaillard Beaujolais Villages 2023, Ap, Sustainable
Beaujolais, France$19.95
In the vein of light, chill-worthy, warm weather-friendly reds, here’s lively Beaujolais Villages with more elegance and nuanced complexity than the norm. Finely composed with gentle botanicals, white pepper, a melange of just-ripe red fruit, silky tannins and just enough acidity. Clean and expressive with a dried wildflower that lingers on the finish of notable length. Certified sustainable.
