Pierre Henri Morel Signargues Côtes Du Rhône Villages 2010, Ac
Rhône, France$15.95
sweet scents of brown sugar, violets, black pepper, herbs and spice. Nice creamy body with structured dry tannins. Plenty of rocky minerals to satisfy. Finishes a tad short and sharp.

Château Pech Redon L'épervier 2010, Ac Côteaux Du Languedoc, La Clape
Languedoc, France$24.95
Where do I start? This wine offers a nice old world funky (manure inspired) nose. The start, again is pleasant smooth and flavorful, but the finish is obnoxiously dry and bitter. My wife pointed out that the finish actually tasted like chewing on an aspirin… and after she did, that’s all I could taste.

Chilcas Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2009, Colchagua Valley
Colchagua Valley, Chile$17.95
Smells like Ricola herbal cough drops, and smoky cherries with vanilla oak & cedar. The palate is medium bodied, with grippy tannins. Nice fruity loganberry finish.

Back 10 Cellars The Big Reach Riesling 2012, VQA Lincoln Lakeshore
Ontario, Canada$25.00
Sweet and lemony with zesty acidity to keep itself fresh. An off dry Riesling that marches to the beat of its own drum.

The Foreign Affair The Conspiracy 2011, VQA Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$19.95
Really impressive tannins and structure for the price. Cherry, tobacco, cassis, smoky vanilla oak, leather, herbs...it's all in there. Niagara Acidity keeps it fresh and balanced.

A classic in my book. Always offers balance and grace with a creamy texture. It's used to be only available at restaurants...great value on sale for 24 bucks.

Amazing QPR - It's soft and smooth, subtle but lush with a caressing finish. Complex and really enjoyable.
