Tawse Sketches Of Niagara Riesling 2009, VQA Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$17.95
With an enticing nose, it is on the palate where this wine really delivers. It has a lot of bright fruit character with big notes of citrus, green apple and peach. The acidity is racy and mouthwatering with a hint of petrol sneaking in already. Enjoy now, this wine is patio ready!
Flat Rock Cellars Riesling 2010, VQA Twenty Mile Bench
Ontario, Canada$16.95
Tree fruit is the first thing that comes to mind when you nose this wine. Exciting notes of peaches and green apples, this is a true Niagara Riesling. This wine is off-dry with bright and refreshing acidity - drink now or hold onto this bottle. I expect big things with 2-3 years of patience.
Tawse Quarry Road Gewurztraminer 2010, VQA Vinemount Ridge, Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$28.95
With excellent true expression Gewurz notes this bottle is a definite palate pleaser. It boasts a beautiful floral nose, with a lightness on the palate and very notable acidity that is unlikely with this varietal. Drink now with thai food, this would be exceptionally well paired with thai green curry.
