Quinta Da Pellada D A C Tinto 2014, Do Dão
Dão, Portugal$16.95
I was taken a back a bit by some spritz. Quite lively and good acidity. Usually a fan of the Dao but not sure this really works for me at the price point.

This wine is very acidic, which detracts for me. Clean, but also a bit thin.

Flat Rock Chardonnay 2016, VQA Twenty Mile Bench, Niagara Escarpment
Ontario, Canada$19.95
This is electricity in a glass. Clear evidence of oak, but combined with good acidity, all in balance, make this a wonderful wine.

Quite substantial. Not particularly fruity. Good acidity and dry. Nice to have a solid Ontario rose that you can rely on.

Fabrègues Sélection Picpoul De Pinet 2020, Ap Picpoul De Pinet
Languedoc, France$16.95
I’ll go with the consensus on this one. 89 is an average of the 4 critic reviews. Has a slight bitterness, but that isn’t a bad thing. Went well with, and in, pasta carbonara.
