	Tawse Winery 2006 Late Harvest Cabernet This is an interesting wine for Tawse … originally picked to make an icewine, the sugar levels ended up being too high, and the grapes were slightly botrytis affected. So they bought some extra juice, which they added to bring down the sugar; but that’s against icewine rules, so they made it as this delicious late harvest wine. Now only an 8 or 9 on the sugar code, depending on who you talk to – the smells are unmistakably cherry, and so are the flavours; and wouldn’t you know it, you get choc...

	Sandbanks Estate Winery 2005 Winter Harvest Vidal There are wines to be analyzed and there are wines to be savored. This is the latter. We could go into how this wine was made, when the grapes were harvested, how long they sat in tank or barrel, but let's forgo all that and instead enjoy the fruits of the labor.

	Huff Estates 2006 First Frost I’m almost positive this wine was in a bigger bottle last year and as I am writing this review I am looking it up … yes there it is, 750ml bottle, oh but the price was also higher ($22.95) … kudos to Huff for lowering the price along with the bottle size, that renews my faith of honesty in the wine business. Alright enough with my critique about prices and bottle size and on with what you’ll find when you pull the cork on this one. The nose has some great tropical fruit notes of apples, kiwi, ...

	Royal DeMaria Wines 2004 Sauvignon Blanc Now here’s an odd little duck … it’s not often that you see this grape frozen on the vine (like try never). It retains its Sauv Blanc qualities of grassiness and grapefruit, but this time, it’s like sprinkling a splash of sugar on top – great follow through results in a lingering finish. (Sugar Code - 20.9)... Rating: Nº votes [Hits: 351 ]
	Royal DeMaria Wines 2004 Chardonnay Not your typical varietal to be making icewine with, but why not, the vines are winter hardy and the skins aren’t brittle and thin – I have tried a late harvest Chard before but never an icewine. Honey and tree fruit dominated – tasty yet delicate. (Sugar Code - 23.1)... Rating: Nº votes [Hits: 353 ]
