Michael Ell

Montecillo Reserva 2006, Rioja

Very nice but coming due - great acidity. Nice with roasted meat and surprisingly with pizza as well (all meat of course) :-)

Tanqueray No. Ten Gin

Not a traditional London gin but very tasty with fairly complex botanicals - makes a nice martini.

Bodegas Castaño Hécula Monastrell 2009, Do Yecla

Wiser's Small Batch Whisky

Wonderful whiskey for the price - full flavour, smooth, great sipping whiskey.

Wildass Red 2008, VQA Niagara Peninsula

Casal Thaulero Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon 2010, Terre Di Chieti, Abruzzo

Very nice but best served with tomato based meals - acidity works well with the tomatoes. Drinking with food makes it much more enjoyable.

Peninsula Ridge Inox Chardonnay 2009, Niagara Peninsula

Konzelmann Shiraz Barrel Aged 2009, VQA Niagara Peninsula

Fruity and enjoyable - good value for the money.
