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.

Château Saint Louis La Perdrix L'envol 2018, Ap Costières De Nîmes
Languedoc, France$12.95
This blend of 50% Syrah, 30% Grenache, and 20% Mourvèdre has a fresh, ripe, purple-fruited nose surrounded by garrigue, peppery spice, mineral, and blackberry aromas. It's medium-bodied and crunchy on the supple palate with very nice blackberry, dark cherry, mineral, and spice flavours supported by lively acidity. Tannins have a just a touch of grip while the finish length is very good. Tasted Dec/2019.
Lacheteau Muscadet 2018, Ap
Loire, France$13.95
Medium intensity nose delivers oyster shell, mineral, lime, herbal aromas and flavours, with saline notes coming to the fore on the palate along with touches of melon. The palate has bright, salty acids with a touch of spritz. Very good length on the lip-smacking finish. Tasted Dec/2019.
Sidewood Stablemate Shiraz 2016, Sustainably Grown, Adelaide Hills, South Australia
South Australia, Australia$16.95

La Mascota Extra Brut Sparkling Rosé
Argentina$19.95
Made with 100% Pinot Noir, the medium intensity nose offers grapefruit, citrus and herbally aromas with some tartness. The medium-bodied palate is dry with toast, grapefruit, citrus, red berry, brioche, and yeasty flavours supported by clean, fresh acids and mousse. It has a spicy mid-palate and very good length on the fresh, crisp finish. Tasted Jan/2020. Score: 88+ pts
