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.

Frescobaldi Castello Di Pomino Pomino Bianco 2017, Doc Bottle
Frescobaldi Castello Di Pomino Pomino Bianco 2017, Doc
Tuscany, Italy
$19.95

This interesting blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco delivers a medium+ intensity nose that is earthy/mineral with lemon peel, and pear aromas. It's medium+ bodied with balanced, bracing acidity that brightens the palate with pleasing notes of pear, peach, and stone fruit flavours that linger through the finish, with very good length. Tasted Nov/2019.

Medium+ intensity nose is bright and perfumed with slatey mineral, pear, and lemon aromas. It's medium-bodied with clean acidity and some saltiness on the mid-palate which leads to mineral and lime notes on the long finish. Tasted Nov/2019.

Mezzacorona Pinot Grigio Trentino Riserva 2017 Bottle
Mezzacorona Pinot Grigio Trentino Riserva 2017
Alto Adige-Trentino, Italy
$17.95

Majority barrel-fermented, this Pinot Grigio has a fragrant, medium+ intensity, oak-influenced nose of apple, pear, butter, and vanilla. It's medium-full bodied, creamy, and well-structured on the palate with nice aroma replays. Juicy acids are nicely balanced, while vanilla and oak notes linger on the finish, with very good length. Tasted Dec/2019.
