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.

Glenelly Estate Reserve Red Blend 2011, Wo Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch, South Africa$19.95
Blend of 40% Syrah, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, and 10% Petit Verdot. Maturing red-brown colour. Generous aromas of roasted red pepper, savoury, spice, cocoa, and blackberry from the glass. The full-bodied palate offers cassis, cocoa, pepper, and savoury notes with some complexity. Fine tannins are smooth, while acids are very good. There's some grip on the long finish. Tasted Mar/2019.

Waterkloof Circle Of Life 2015, Wo Stellenbosch

Blend of 72% Sauvignon Blanc and 28% Chenin Blanc. Not very aromatic, but the medium bodied palate is creamy, viscous, and nicely textured with minerally, graphite, iron and herbally flavours. Acids are well-balanced while the finish is clean with very good length. Tasted Apr/2019.
