Terravista Vineyards Fandango 2016, Okanagan Valley
British Columbia, Canada$25.00
Floral and fruity with a smooth mouth feel. A very pleasant wine, that served well as a before dinner bottle.
Peller Estates Private Reserve Cabernet Franc 2015, VQA Niagara On The Lake
Ontario, Canada$22.95
Really impressed by this wine received in the first Wine Exchange shipment. Solid Cab Franc, with real stylistic elements from Bordeaux, including a hint of gravel...in the good way...
Rustenberg Merlot 2010, Wo Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch, South Africa$19.95
I thought this was an excellent wine. Presenting the kind of value you look for when buying a South African wine, this was big and complex. This tasted like a bordeaux with really nice tobacco, leather, sage and cedar notes. The wine opened up over time and presented a very long finish.
Cederberg Shiraz 2015, Wo Cederberg
South Africa$20.75
Hugely expressive with deep, dark cassis, earth and violets. For the price, it is simply sensational.
Quinta Das Carvalhas Touriga Nacional 2011, Doc Douro
Douro, Portugal$21.95
Lovely and full wine with aromas of vanilla, lavender and black fruit. Soft on the palette with a very long finish. This wine will be even better in a few years, but is very enjoyable right now.
