Twenty Twenty-seven Cellars Featherstone Vineyard Riesling 2009, VQA Twenty Mile Bench, Niagara Peninsula

nice, but lemonny to the edge of sour. I might leave this for a year. August 2012. It was interesting, but I did not buy a second.

Valdivieso Single Vineyard Old Vines Malbec 2009, Do Sagrada Familia, Valle De Curico

Very nice with BBQ lamb burgers. Blackberry and coconut notes, nicely put together.

Benegas Estate Finca Libertad Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2021, Mendoza

Very good. Repeat buy.

Masi Serego Alighieri Possessioni Rosso 2009, Veneto

Nice $15 bottle, medium body, polished, berries/cherries/earthy, nice finish. Nice with prime rib.

Pierre Sparr Gewurztraminer 2012, Alsace

Small Gully Mr. Black'S Little Book Shiraz 2010, Barossa Valley

Wonderfull Shiraz, bought two more.

K W V Cathedral Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon 2008, Western Cape

This is a very nice cab sauv for $15 - full bodied, black current, leather, earthy taste. Good steak wine, bought 3 more. 89-90.

Seghesio Zinfandel Sonoma 2014

tasted May 2018, with a bacon-wrapped, pan seared filet mignon. Fantastic. Nose of dark fruit and spice. Well developed flavours and strong finish. If I could change anything, it would be the number of bottles I purchased! Sadly only one, as this had legs for years.

La Sauvageonne Pica Broca 2008, Ac Coteaux Du Languedoc

This is a nice, food-friendly wine for $13 - recommended. 89+

Villa Mt. Eden Grand Reserve Bien Nacido Chardonnay 2007, Santa Maria Valley

Over-the-top, banana and pineapple aroma, followed by flavours like a butterscotch Sunday. Have with something big and worthy, like pasta with wild mushroom/cream sauce, or wild mushroom/chicken risotto. Fantastic.
