San Polo Rubio 2016, Igt Toscana Bottle
San Polo Rubio 2016, Igt Toscana
Tuscany, Italy
$23.87

Cherry, dried and bitter, along with some herbal and black pepper notes. Good solid wine that works best with food. Solid if not exciting.

Pearce Predhomme Chenin Blanc Old Vine/Wild Ferment 2019 Bottle
Pearce Predhomme Chenin Blanc Old Vine/Wild Ferment 2019
Stellenbosch, South Africa
$22.74

Bold in aromatics and flavour with citrus, pineapple. A hint that it may develop more mellow honey notes and a bit more balance over time. Finishes with a pleasant bitterness as well.

Davide Vignato Col Moenia Garganega 2021, I.G.T. Veneto

Dominated by a sweet farmhouse apple cider nose and flavour with its inherent oxidative note. Distinctive. Did work well with food surprisingly. Tasted March 2025.

Good value red with lots of tangy and jammy fruit notes. Good depth of flavours, soft tannins, very enjoyable now. Should be a summer crowd-pleaser.

Supple fruit, medium feel, elegant and drinking well now. Youthful look and flavours starting to add some more mature elements.

Featherstone Phoenix 2020, VQA Niagara Peninsula Bottle
Featherstone Phoenix 2020, VQA Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada
$18.95

A very good gewurz at this price, in a dry, rich and round Alsatian style. Floral nose with melon, spice and floral flavours. The warm 2020 vintage shows. Enjoyed this wine.

Tawse Sketches Of Niagara Riesling 2021, VQA Niagara Peninsula

$19.95

A soft, failry rich style for riesling. Lots on the nose with honey, apple and grapefruit on the palate. Moderate acidity, not as nervy as would be preferred yet balanced and easy to drink.

Bartier Bros. Syrah Cerqueira Vineyard 2018, Okanagan Valley

$34.59

Concentrated fruit balanced with some tannin and nice fresh acidity. Youthful at this time so probably has room to age further. (September 2023)

Three Saints Happy Canyon Cabernet Sauvignon 2017, Santa Ynez Valley Bottle

$33.82

Everything harmoniously balanced. Some complexity of flavour. Polished yet I found lacking in tension or structure. Good wine but not good value in my mind.

Crisp, flavourful and food friendly. Mineral with lots of citrus. Apricot and a mushroom earthiness in the background. Dry in style and really quite good.
