Frescobaldi Tenuta Di Castiglioni 2014, Igt Toscana
Tuscany, Italy$21.95
(2)
Aug 2020....pretty sure don't have any more. Both may have been a gift to me from Anne D. Think I returned one and drank the other. Recollection was thin and nothing exciting and nothing like the exceptional 2007 vintage.

Santa Carolina Specialties Dry Farming Carignan 2012, Cauquenes Valley
Maule Valley, Chile$18.95
July 2020....always have enjoyed Carignan and in particular this Wineries version. Great taste and good value. Full bodied and delicous. Had with chicken, ok but needs red meat. Next time have with steak, lamb or sausage. Drink last one in fall of 2020. (90)

Dec 21....I see an empty bottle, must be gone. Don't recall much but I believe was just alright, simple. Didn't bother buying more.

Mayu Reserva Carmenère/Syrah 2014, Elquí Valley
Chile$15.95
2020/21
September 2020.....loved this wine, so smooth, so delicious, Full, fruity, salivating. Had with steak, and a lamb burger on another night....went great! Great great value here. Loved the fact that Mayu is Inca for the Milky Way!! Pretty sure this wine was recommended by the Newmarket Leslie St LCBO Manager. In terms of enjoyment reminds me of some bargain Malbecs we used to have some 5=6 years ago. Wish I had bought more.

Mar 2022....very nice 'Chilean' pinot. Had a lovely berry aroma and flavour. Quite smooth and succulent. Enjoyed with a WeCook Cod dinner, worked out great. Happy with the purchase.

Santa Rita Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
Maipo Valley, Chile$14.70
gift from Ken & Odette (Dec 2017)
...2018 BBQ
July 2019...wasn't expecting too much here so it surprised me. Not reminiscent of a CS but was pleasant though soft and not sweet thankfully. Even went well with bbq salmon one night. As long as not looking for richness and complexity was a good simple pour.
