Chateau Des Charmes Gamay Noir 'droit' St. David's Bench Vineyard 2010, St. David's Bench
Ontario, Canada
$16.95

As close to a Cru Beaujolais as you're going to find! A solid Ontario expression of Gamay.

This is a full throttle juicy wine, bursting with blueberry jam and oozing vanilla extract residue from the oak. It's really smooth and delicious...and yes lots of Grenacha sweetness. Cab heads and bourbon boys will dig this.

Pelissero Munfrina Dolcetto D'alba 2012, Doc Bottle
Pelissero Munfrina Dolcetto D'alba 2012, Doc
Piedmont, Italy
$18.95

If Dolcetto wasn't looked upon as a simple table wine, this wine would be triple the price. The nose is a mix mash of earth and fruit...very pungent. The palate is seriously structured like a job interview, tight grippy finish.

This wine always impresses me for the price. Big structure and loads of flavours to savour. I really love the honesty of this wine year after year.

Bursting with strawberry & raspberry fruit, cola, brown sugar, baking spices and red roses. Super creamy body showing length and bredth on the palate. Adds a touch of black pepper to the cashmere finish.

Loved it...smokey raspberries, strawberries and bing cherries. The palate is medium to full bodied and smooth. It stays honest with a long structured finish.

Absolutely fantastic Chardonnay. This is textbook Oaked Chardonnay. Balanced fruit and acidity and very calm on the palate. HOP has a great track record of consistent wine making and this chard continues that legacy at a terrific price.

Great review David, I couldn't have summed this wine up better. 90pts for me though. This wine provides incredible drinkability!
