Very enjoyable and moderately priced. Definitely worth picking up a few more for the cellar.

Wow, what a nice white wine. Fresh, and pleasing with interesting minerality. Smooth with well balanced acidity. Flavours of citrus fruits with a subtle touch of black licorice. Tasted February 2012.

Malivoire Rose Moira 2014, VQA Beamsville Bench

Goldeneye Pinot Noir 2009, Anderson Valley

A lovely new world pinot. A little on the pricey side, but if you're looking for something that need not to be shaken nor stirred, then this is a perfect choice to pair with your favourite James Bond flick. Tasted January 2013.

Hewitson Miss Harry 2009, Barossa Valley, South Australia

A very enjoyable red blend of Grenache, Shiraz, Mourvedre, Cinsault and Carignan from Australia's Barossa Valley. Medium bodied with light tannins, but still packing some punch with its 14% alcohol. Flavours of dark berries, cherries, pepper, and leather. Priced at under $24, this wine is an excellent value. Tasted May 2012.

Château De Myrat 2007, Ac Barsac, 2e Cru (375ml)

Average in comparison to other sauternes I've tasted. Not bad, but not great either.

Le Clos Jordanne Village Reserve Chardonnay 2009, VQA Twenty Mile Bench, Niagara Peninsula

Tasted February 2013.
