Dan Aykroyd 2006 Chardonnay

I am not convinced that Dan likes whites very much. At the launch of this wine he is quoted as saying “[it’s] a compromise between my almost bitter palate and the Chardonnay that Niagara is known for … I’m satisfied with it.” This wine exhibits a very soft nose that is almost imperceptible as to what is in the glass; after 12 months in French oak, I was expecting a little more than what I got. The softness continues in the mouth and instead of oaky it’s tropical fruit and pineapple … but very...

Sandbanks Estate Winery 2006 Riesling

There are many that proclaim Riesling is Ontario’s grape to do wonderful things with; that’s because they have been privileged enough to try those Rieslings from the Beamsville Bench, where the Riesling fruit is simply top-notch; but what about the rest of the province? There aren’t too many trying their hand with this grape out in Prince Edward County, but those who do seem to have quite good success. Catherine Langlois of Sandbanks is one of those working with Riesling, and a good thing she ...

Tawse Winery 2004 Dry Riesling

Much of what I am about to say probably won’t win me many friends at Tawse, though I must say right from the outset I love this wine. Last year I visited Tawse Winery and walked away less than impressed … mainly about the wine. As everybody who reads my reviews knows, I am always looking for a good value to pass along: a Riesling for $12; a Cabernet Franc at $14.95 – wines that perform not only in the glass but are also a good bargain for the pocketbook. Tawse left me flat with $42 Chardonna...

Colchester Ridge Estate Winery 2005 Gewurztraminer

A simple yet delicious Gewurztraminer, the nose is floral noted with some well integrated citrus; the taste is totally in sync with the nose: floral and lime tastes, hints of typical Gerwurztraminer spiciness also peek through on the tongue; making this one heck of a wonderful and elegant sipper....

Aleksander Estates 2005 Late Autumn Riesling

A relatively new winery on the South Western Ontario scene, owner and winemaker Aleksander Bemben worked for Pelee Island Winery since the early 80’s before fulfilling his dream of opening his own place in May of 2005. This sweet little number is a party in the mouth, but it’s all about timing and as with most parties it begins slowly, so bare with it. Right from the pop of the cork (when the door opens) it has a strong petrol nose, 15 minutes later apple starts to peak through the petrol curt...
