	Sanson Estate Winery 2001 Cabernet Merlot This wine got stellar reviews from our panel when we brought it back from our Lake Erie North Shore trip. They went ga-ga over the fruity nose, with a slight hint of green pepper in the background. The mild tannins, the smooth mouth-feel … the pleasant bite on the finish. All indications point to a great wine drinking experience for the next few years to come. This medium bodied red was a real crowd-pleaser: “delicious”; “very nice” were just some of the comments … this could possibly be on... Rating: Nº votes [Hits: 312 ]
	Unity Wine 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot The Cab Sauv-Merlot yielded more interesting comments – along with a pleasant fruity nose upon first snort, we discovered something even more interesting upon repeated swirling and sniffing: “HP Sauce” – was the way one panel member described the peppery-spicy smell, which suddenly had us all dreaming of steaks and burgers hot off the grill. A hint of tannin made for a nice easy drinking wine, which is best described as smooth, while the dryness in the finish made us once again crave something... Rating: Nº votes [Hits: 346 ]
	Wagner Estate Winery Log House Red The most difficult part of our reviews is when a winery offers up so many good wines it’s hard to pick which one to review. We decided to start off with this great quaffer: Wagner’s only truly red wine. Harold called it his “meritage blend” – we called it delicious. With a blend of Baco Noir and other local grapes, it truly is a unique wine, one to hang out with friends pre-BBQ. There’s a slight hint of tannin, but a slight chill on the wine mellowed that right out … we slotted this one on ... Rating: Nº votes [Hits: 328 ]
	Southbrook 2001 Cabernet Merlot Holy quaffable wine Batman have we got one for you! Over the past few years the OntarioWineReview staff has been keeping it’s eye on this family-owned winery north of Toronto. Some wineries that win lots of awards with their high-end wines make value priced drinkers that are stinkers – but not this one. This 2001 Cab-Merlot hits all the right spots … smells of fresh red pepper in the glass which delivers equally on the palate – and there’s a hint of tannin backbone that makes this one ideal f...

	Inniskillin 2002 Merlot – Black Label This wine can be summed up in one word – smooth … what a surprise based on many of the Ontario Merlots we have tried in the past. Truth is our panel is not a fan of Ontario Merlot, young Ontario Merlots especially: although we keep trying they’re usually too harsh, too tannic or too something else. That’s why this wine took us by surprise. Smooth, supple, easy drinking, low tannins – everything you don’t expect from an Ontario Merlot – opinions were definitely changed. Our hats come off to ...
