Wine lover since 2001! My interest in wine began while touring the factory where they printed the LCBO VINTAGES magazine.

Over time, my passion for wine grew. Now, I am highly regarded by friends and colleagues as a resource for when they need a wine for that special occasion, be it an anniversary, birthday, wedding, gatherings at home, or when they want to impress their special friend or the In-Laws.

Combining my interest in the Internet/web/computers, you can find me at https://vintagewinepicks.blogspot.com where you will find more wine reviews, events and contests.

$21.95

This blend of 90% Sangiovese, 5% Malvasia Nera, and 5% Canaiolo is fresh and perfumed with red cherry, spice, cinnamon, and clove aromas. It is medium-bodied with tight, chalky tannins and nice aroma replays on the flavour profile. Acids are very good, while the finish is long and chalky. Will be better in 2-3 years. Tasted Oct/2019.

Medium-high intensity nose that is ripe with floral, lime citrus and some mineral nuances. It's medium-bodied with fresh acidity and a touch of spritz on the lively palate with nicely balanced aroma replays. Very good length on the clean, crisp finish. Tasted Nov/2019. Score: 88+ pts

This dry Riesling has a fragrant, medium-high intensity and complex nose offering orange, lime, peach, pear, and stony mineral notes with a kiss of petrol. It's medium+ bodied and concentrated with juicy acidity and very nice aroma replays. Tangy citrus notes linger on the long finish. Tasted Nov/2019.
