	Vineland Estate 2007 Semi-Dry Riesling Brian Schmidt is the 6th Beatle! Well I figure if somebody is already claiming 5th Beatle status, Brian should apply for 6th. Brian Schmidt is the winemaker of Vineland and when sampling this wine and later writing this review, I had the song “Fool on the Hill” running through my head, if you’ve been to Vineland you’ll know they reside on and near plenty of hills. (To the tune of Fool on the Hill) “Day after day, alone on his hill … the winemaker of Vineland is sitting perfectly still. And n... Rating: Nº votes [Hits: 269 ]
	Twenty Twenty-Seven Cellars 2007 Riesling Winemaker Kevin Panagapka has an idea. It’s not new, nor is it unique, but it does allow him to follow his passion of being a winemaker with his own label. He buys the best quality fruit he can and then, to make his wine, rents some space so that he can save a little money (having your own equipment can be expensive), money he doesn’t have, yet. But if he keeps making wine like this, he’ll soon have a tidy sum and his Twenty Twenty-Seven Cellars will have itself a very reputable name. His gr... Rating: 3,00 (1 Votes) [Hits: 236 ]
	Thomas and Vaughan 2007 Riesling I know what you’re thinking, ‘I haven’t heard very much from Thomas and Vaughan lately’ … Well, it seems that while they were under the control of Diamond Estates (Lakeview, Eastdell, Dan Aykroyd) they were very much an after-thought. Now under new ownership, a new winemaking team is in place with a new focus. T & V is readying itself for phoenix-status, rising out of the ashes. Here is their first new offering of note in a long while – made by winemakers Steve Byfield and Arther Harder. Gol... Rating: 3,00 (2 Votes) [Hits: 285 ]
	Ridgepoint Wines 2006 Medium-Dry Riesling This is one sweet Riesling – I don’t mean sugar-wise, I mean it like the kids mean it; sweet as in good, like when they see you pull up in a Porsche, “that’s one sweet ride”. The smell is subtle, with Mac apples and a hint of floral; but then it’s mouth time. First thing to notice is the great acidity, which is crisp and cool, balancing between the sweet flavours and that bit of bite. Flavours are driven by those Mac apples (bite) and lemon zest (tart), but there’s a sweet core that fights wi... Rating: 5,00 (1 Votes) [Hits: 291 ]
	Peller Estates Private Reserve 2006 Riesling Peller was the only Canadian winery to pick up a medal (silver) at the prestigious 2008 Riesling du Monde competition … over 500 Rieslings were entered from all over the world, and we all know who rules in that category on the world stage, so to pick up a silver is a pretty big deal. So what does a world silver medal Riesling taste like? Like a very good Riesling - but I suspect you want to know more than that. Well this Riesling is big on minerality, with peach and lime as back up. The tast... Rating: Nº votes [Hits: 211 ]
