Loosen Bros. Dr. L Riesling 2012, Qualitätswein
Mosel, Germany$13.95
LIght and simple, off-dry, very tastey with a turkey dinner with gravey. I bought a second one.

Z De L'arjolle Zinfandel 2011, Vin De France
Languedoc, France$19.95
Tasted January 2015. Big flavour but not as sweet as a Cali Zinf. Lamb, steak, burgers. This has lots of staying power and my second bottle will be tasted in 2016+. This might be a 90 at that point.

Acceptable however this is not going to be a repeat buy. Drink up with grilled burgers.

Calamus Pinot Gris 2013, VQA Vinemount Ridge, Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$16.95
Very light body pinot gris. Good sipper, I think most food would over power this.

35 South Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2009
Chile$12.95
2009 was in my cellar for a year, had it with a steak. Impressive, more polised than I remember. Nice wine for $13, wish I had another.

Torre Saracena Riserva Salice Salentino 2009
Puglia, Italy$13.75
Nov - 14
This was far better than I expected from the reviews. Very dry with integrated wood and cherry flavours and various herbs on the nose. Loved it with pasta in a red sauce with meat and wild mushrooms. I will cellar the second bottle for a bit longer yet, it has legs.

Columbia Crest Grand Estates Chardonnay 2015, Columbia Valley
Washington, Usa$17.95
I think the critics are a bit harsh on this one. Easy drinking, butterscotch and tropical fruit. A bit "commercial" maybe but we enjoyed it. Bought three more on sale.

Columbia Crest Grand Estates Merlot 2010, Columbia Valley
Washington, Usa$17.95
I really liked this actually. Full-on blueberry and other dark fruit. Recommended with lamb meatloaf or roast beef. Pretty close to a 90 point wine for me.
