Organized Crime Winery 2007 Cabernet Franc

I have often thought of winemaker Andrjez Lipinski as a white wine genius, but of late he is showing a pretty deft hand with reds too. This Cabernet Franc spent 17 months in new 225L Eastern European (Polish and Ukrainian) oak. Smells and flavours intermingle to produce tobacco, cherry, strawberry, and herb notes; smooth on the palate with a touch of grit from the tannins, nice fruit, oak and spice with a delicious long cherry finish. Only 150 cases produced from 6 barrels. This is a fabulou...

Southbrook 2008 Triomphe Merlot

This has the distinction of being Canada’s first bio-dynamic red. Now some folks don’t fully understand bio-dynamic winemaking; it seems like a lot of hocus-pocus with its phases of the moon planning and poop-filled horns in the vineyard. Allow me to alleviate your fears of any magical mystery about the wine, what it all boils down to is getting back to a more natural way of making wine. This Merlot has got a lot of oomph and power, from the smoky blackberry and black raspberry nose to the ca...

Fielding Estate Winery 2007 Chosen FEW Red

Big wines come with big price tags attached; then again, so do limited availability wines. This atypical red blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot and 14% Syrah had only 150 case produced. This wine’s big and muscular, just what you’d expect from a wine containing Cabernet and Syrah, but the Merlot adds its own muscle to the mix too. The nose and palate are quite complex adding layers of aromas and flavours. Blackberry and smoky notes start off the smells with smoked meat and violets o...

Fielding Estate Winery 2007 Merlot

Eighteen months in barrel and on lees from a big year can produce this kind of black beauty of a Merlot. This is not your mother’s soft spoken, supple fruited Merlot of a bygone era. This is also not the kind of Merlot Milo spoke about in Sideways. This is a brawny Merlot with a tight unwielding nose that tickles the olfactries with cassis, cinnamon and the possibility of things to come. The palate shows a little more than the nose; sure you’ll find big blackberry and cassis flavours but the...
