Vintage: 2004
Type: Cabernet Franc
Country: Canada – Okanagan
This wine was picked up in our March trip to the Okanagan Valley. Summerhill is one of the better know vineyards in the area and this Cabernet Franc is a good representation of their wine. Very good flavours of berry and blackcurrent with some woody bouquet and finish. Recommended.
Vintage: Non-Vintage
Type: Champagne
Country: France – Pierry
This is an excellent bottle of Brut Champagne. It’s the brother’s label from Champagne Lenique in Pierry: a nice bottle with a modern label. This champagne it is great. Nice small and plentiful bubbles with a great taste and almost no after-taste. Hard to find, but if you do pick up a bottle (I had to go to champagne and to the producer to do so).
Vintage: 2003
Type: Shiraz
Country: Australia – Mclaren Vale
I had a bottle of this included in a mixed case and I was unsure what to make of it. I had had Rosemount’s excellent GSM, so I was expecting something special. Boy was I not let down! An excellent wine, that is great now and should last for quite a few more years. I loved the oak flavours and bouquet and the wine had a deep rich crimson colour.
I need to go fine a case of this stuff…
