May 24, 2019 Review of: Vila Regia Douro Red
7.5/10 $9.00 Vila Regia Douro Red (Portugal). Deep ruby in colour. Smells fruity and of fresh strawberries. Extra dry and medium bodied with balanced acidity.

7/10 $14.95 Eastdell Gamay Noir VQA (Ontario). Light ruby in colour. Dry and light-medium bodied. Pretty smooth to start with sweeter jammy flavours of cherry and strawberry.

7.25/10 $13.95 Las Mulas Reserva Organic Chardonnay (Chile). Light straw colour. Dry with a bit of sparkle and high acidity (or so I felt). Lots of initial upfront body with flavours of spicy pineapple, citrus and pear. Somewhat of a lingering aftertaste. . I actually didn’t mind this one at all, and considering the price,...

April 18, 2019 Review of: Kaiken Malbec
8.5/10 $15.95 Kaiken Malbec (Argentina). Deep ruby in colour. Dry and medium-full bodied. Very nice, well balanced flavours of oak, berry, and cherry with a toasty and subtle chocolate finish. Overall very delicious and smooth. I really enjoyed having this on its own and although it was a gift, I would definitely purchase again myself!
