Tawse Sketches Of Niagara Riesling 2009, VQA Niagara Peninsula

Fantastic riesling from one of my favourite Niagara wineries. The sweetness contrasts well with the refreshing citrus notes, specifically grapefruit. A great buy at $17.95, among the better '09 Ontario rieslings.

Château La Fleur Terrien 2008, Ac Lussac Saint émilion

A steal for $15. Rich, smooth with a nice finish. Dark fruits on the palate, with a nice spicy aroma. Worth drinking now and/or holding on to for a couple years.
