K W V Contemporary Collection Chenin Blanc 2014, Western Cape

What a great value for money. It is nice and sweet with good floral and citrusy notes. Good balance between the sweet and the dry. One of the best value for money white wines you can get and it is my normal house white. At $9.45 it is a great deal, on sale ($7.95) it's just incredible. Time to go stock up....

Cono Sur Bicicleta Pinot Noir 2013, Central Valley

Grão Vasco 2009

A perfectly drinkable red wine, but nothing spectacular, but for $8.00 it is definitely a good value buy

Hardys Stamp Of Australia Shiraz Cabernet 2012, South Eastern Australia

Deinhard Green Label Riesling 2012, Mosel Saar Ruwer, Germany

This is a great wine for those who like sweeter rieslings. It has strong notes of Green Apple as well as honey. Good value for money

Jackson Triggs Niagara Estate Reserve Chardonnay 2011, VQA Niagara Peninsula

I like the creamy smoothness, went well with the spicy chicken we were eating but that bitter finish really lets the side down. A decent wine but you can do better for $12.00

Inniskillin Niagara Estate Late Autumn Riesling 2012, VQA Niagara Peninsula

I am reviewing the 2013, because the 2012 is not on this list but this is the best Riesling I have tried and one of my favourite whites. Nice, sweet (but not overly sweet) and refreshing, great on a summer evening sitting on the dock.

Gazela Vinho Verde

Bland, tastes like mineral water

Emu Oloroso Cream Sherry, Australia

Hungaria Grande Cuvée Brut

I will start by admitting I only bought this bottle because it was the cheapest bottle of bubbles in the LCBO. Now that is out of the way, this is a surprisingly decent sparkling. It's very dry, with a bit of a sour, green apply taste. The bubbles are very prominent, but not overwhelming, but it exceeds all expectations and then some for $12 bubbles.
