Kangarilla Road Shiraz 2009, Mclaren Vale
Australia$15.20
Vanilla and choclate plus lots of fruit. Well balanced but not a long finish. Would have liked it more at around $15.
Tasted Feb 2013
Trapiche Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2010, Mendoza
Argentina$11.95
Earth, smoke and peppery spices, delicious dark fruits, fine tannins, well balanced after short decanting.
Well worth the price and better than some other under $20 south american cabs imo. I will be stocking up on this in my next visit to lcbo. Tasted Dec 2012
Cono Sur Bicicleta Viognier 2011, Colchagua Valley
Colchagua Valley, Chile$9.95
Great value, little acidic to my liking but it is great when it's chilled. It also felt slightly like a sparkling white which I enjoyed.
Château Peyros Tannat/Cabernet 2007, Ac Madiran
Southwest, France$15.95
I enjoy old world wines and tannins but after an hour of decanting this one was still very dry and acidic. I couldn't finish the glass I poured.
Another day another go, I decanted for about 3 hours and it was much better. I agree with other comments, it is not fruit forward and could be better in a few years. Tasted Dec 2012
Castaño La Casona Monastrell 2011, Yecla
Spain$9.65
Exceptional value, little bit of everything yet basic, and for under $10.
