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.

Echeverría Elementos Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon 2015, Maipo Valley
Maipo Valley, Chile$19.95
85% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest equal parts Petit Verdot, Petit Sirah, and Carmenere. This has a medium-high nose that is maturing with evergreen notes layered on top of hints of dried cherry, floral, and sweet oak spice notes. It is full-bodied and fresh with grippy tannins. Flavours of ripe red and black fruits, sweet spice, and herbally hints that linger on the finish, with very good length. Tasted Sept/2019.

Domaine De Rochebin Chardonnay Mâcon Azé 2017, Ac
Burgundy, France$17.95
Evolved, mature golden yellow colour. This has a delicate, medium+ intensity nose of flinty mineral, pear, and lemon aromas, all of which come through on the medium-bodied palate. Fresh, crisp acidity lifts the palate. Fine mineral notes linger on the long finish. Tasted Nov/2019.

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.
