Hillebrand Winery 2005 Trius Dry Riesling

When I do my tasting notes, I write them on small scraps of paper that I have lying about, then, a day later, I review my notes and write the review. There are times when I smile fondly over the notes, remembering the wine, and other times where I can literally still taste and smell the wine as I read over my scribblings. This is one of those wines … it might seem simple on the page, but it was far from that. Immediately the smell was of peach and melon, with hints of Bartlett pear thrown int...

Jackson-Triggs 2005 Delaine Vineyard Riesling

From the very first sip to the ultimate and inevitable last tip of the glass, the best word to describe this Riesling is “wow”. The Delaine Vineyard line of wines from Jackson-Triggs, Ontario, is the fruit from one of their premier vineyards, which was planted by Don and Elaine Triggs in an effort to showcase the terroir of the Niagara Peninsula. A great nose of apple, citrus, peach and some petrol aromas does not even begin to prepare you for what’s in store once the wine passes your lips. T...

Angels Gate 2006 Sussreserve Riesling

Angels Gate has made this wine for as long as I can remember, though the past few vintages have not lived up to what I remember it being the first time I tried it; thankfully, this one brings me back to those good old days when the mere mention of this wine got my heart all aflutter, and my salivary glands working overtime. This one is a very palate friendly white that is ripe for the summer months ahead, made in a low alcohol, sussreserve, Germanic-style. Sussreserve, means that a little of t...

Angels Gate 2005 Single Vineyard Gewurztraminer

Gewurztraminer was one of my first wine loves. It’s duality of spicy and fruity made it an interesting and tasty wine for a budding young wine lover; it also helped bridge the gap between sweet fruit wines and dry whites. This wonderful Gewurztraminer does exactly what I remember Gewurztraminers being able to do: the potential of turning a sweet fruit wine lover into a grape wine lover. But this wine goes even further, because it’ll turn even die-hard red drinkers back to whites, if only for...

Fielding Estate Winery 2006 Riesling Reserve

Fielding made their name with Riesling under a different winemaker who is known for making some really good whites, with Ray Cornell taking over the reigns, the real question was, would their whites, namely the flagship Rieslings, suffer? I am happy to report, not at all, in fact they show the kind of innovation and difference in style that their previous vintages did not. The difference between the Reserve and Semi-Dry is like night and day; the semi-dry is a two on the sugar code and has the...
