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.

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.

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.
