Melanie and her husband Dave are avid wine lovers and go out of their way to arrange vacations around wine touring and golf.
No-where near experts, we are both enthusiastic about drinking and learning more about wine and keeping our cellar topped up. Nothing we like better than sharing and discussing wines with other enthusiasts!

Jackson Triggs Niagara Estate Grand Reserve Shiraz 2011, VQA Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$24.95
Personally, I’ve never been a huge fan of Canadian reds – always preferring more robust California, Australian and South African reds – but this one has really sold me on trying them again. It’s got everything in balance – it’s peppery with berry notes and mocha on the nose, but it’s got a bit of the finesse you find in French wines. The oak definitely does not overpower the wine. It’s certainly robust enough to stand up to beef stew, and I think would be a wonderful wine for filet mignon.
