Domaine De Saint Siffrein Châteauneuf Du Pape 2007, Ac
Rhône, France$44.95
last one in 2019
...started with 3 or 4
enjoyed every bottle opened
recall having two at Oberege (Keith's 80th birthday and Tina's 60th birthday)....possibly one at O & B's on Front St. (get together with Geoff)....lastly gifted one to Rona re Thanksgiving dinner 2018.
October 2019...cant find one in inventory....think the one to Rona was the last one!

Cant recall when I drank this wine, but do recall that it was decent and wasn't disappointed with its purchase.

both LCBO and Wine Align advertise as a 2017 but is actually a 2018?? Whats more, in the past I've purchased either a 2014 or 2015, which I liked and it no longer appears in their history??
Dec 2020....Xmas gift to Kim & Kelley
October 2021....for Thanksgiving. Went well enough with our turkey thighs and roasted vegetables. A bold, rich and dark wine with exotic and smokey flavour. Smooth enough to enjoy as a sipper but better with food. First sip Crystal had had since her pregnancy with Auston, she said it was heavenly! (90)

2022+2023 or possibly longer?
Jan 22.......wow, fantastic! Delicious. Great weight, flavour and acidity. Stupendous value! Had with roast chicken leg, went great. This has several years left but tastes so good now, why wait. Have last one about a year from now.
La Pieve Barolo 2008, Docg
Piedmont, Italy$34.95
Nov 25/16....loved it, had with bison meatloaf, needs meat/protien, would say at peak right now, really mellow given critic's descriptives from 2012/13, 30 minute decant.
May 2017...mature, drink last one soon. had with Osso Buco, still quite enjoy this wine..
March 27, 2019 still hanging in there and was perfect with Osso Buco once again!

July 2019.....wow, really nice after 30 minutes of air time....had with bbq dry-aged flank steak....superb! Almost too smooth....so easy to keep drinking.

2016+2017+2018
-can't remember 1st one ( likely 2017)
- hostess gift to Rona Thanksgiving 2018
December 2021....worried I might be late with this one but it was fine. Possibly past its peak, missing some freshness perhaps, but smooth and satisfying all the same. Had with cabbage rolls, went well. This wine is surely in my 'favorites' column, consistently good year after year.
