La Velona Brunello Di Montalcino 2009, Docg
Tuscany, Italy$39.95
Nose offers smoky vanilla, herbs and spices. Very dry on the palate - cherry tobacco follows. It's thin to medium bodied and well knit. A good decant is needed to open this little devil up.
The Balvenie 12 Y O Doublewood, Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Scotland, World$129.85
Thought this would have been a lot richer and smoother. Not totally impressed here for the price. Much cheaper options out there in my opinion.
Pirramimma Shiraz 2006, Mclaren Vale, South Australia
Australia$24.95
big and juicy like all of their wines, it is packed with juicy rich fruit and really well made...but make no mistake...this is a huge huge wine...MASSIVE!
Writers Tears Pot Still Blend (700ml)
Ireland, World$49.95
loved it. Vanilla, caramel, honey and peach notes. Really smooth.
Bowmore 12 Years Old Islay Single Malt, United Kingdom
Scotland, World$76.20
Tastes like Ozonol cream or a Band-aid.
Domaine Terlato & Chapoutier Lieu Dit Malakoff Shiraz 2010, Pyrenees
Victoria, Australia$35.25
Well made, smooth & structured. interesting and mind provoking...black pepper, blueberry, cherry, violets,tobacco..etc... the palate is super smooth but flavours turn to sour or expired chocolate, leather (lots of leather) gamey almost???...weird...but enjoyable...not a blockbuster, for the wine nerd.
Le Clos Jordanne La Petite Colline Vineyard Pinot Noir 2007, VQA Niagara Peninsula, Twenty Mile Bench
Ontario, Canada$40.00
big for a niagara pinot, defies the norm. Balanced and structured, silky with good tannins
Rolly Gassmann Rotleibel De Rorschwihr Auxerrois 2007, Ac Alsace
Alsace, France$15.75
If you enjoy late harvest wines you will adore this. Although I prefer late harvest cab franc from niagara, I have to admit, this gave me some real drinking pleasure.
Tawse Quarry Road Chardonnay 2010, VQA Vinemount Ridge, Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$34.95
Loved this wine for its fullness of character – smooth, big, ripe, lush, tropical & zesty fruits with buttery mineral notes, vanilla oak and more. Very nice long caressing finish.
