Mastronardi 2010 Viognier/Pinot Blanc

★★★½

This is a very interesting blend that I just didn't see coming - but why not, the world revolves around the whimsy of winemakers. The wine is tropically tinged on both the nose and palate, offering up refreshing notes of pear and pineapple. Price: $15.0 ...

Mastronardi 2008 Merlot / Cabernet

★★★½

The Lake Erie region is our hottest in Ontario, I'm talking temperature here, but it should be a hot destination for you red lovers because they get the right amount of sun exposure. In 2008, when Niagara was struggling to get the best from their grapes, ...

Mastronardi 2008 Brianje Riesling

★★★★

For those of you who picked up the 2007 version of this wine a few months ago at the LCBO I hope you won't hold that against the '08. The '07 was tired by the time it hit the board's shelves; it was 3 years old and from a hot vintage that was not kind to ...

Mastronardi 2007 Vidal

The art of dry Vidal winemaking is to distance yourself from what Vidal is now popular for, icewine, and make something radically different with it. When most people see the word “Vidal” on the label, they automatically think sweet, but those willing to ...

Mastronardi 2007 Cabernet Rosé

The odd part about rosé is that it is made from red grapes and can have smells and tastes usually associated with white grapes. This Mastronardi Rosé is made from 100% Cabernet Franc grapes and has some of the most interesting smells. The nose has so mu ...

Mastronardi 2006 Chardonnay

★★★½

Reviewed February 2010, as part of the sexy winemaker judging … For the white wine in the sexiest winemaker competition, Lyse Leblanc looked back at her catalogue and decided the 2006 Chardonnay best represented her white wine work … she could have taken ...

Mastronardi 2006 "Pavlo" Signature Meritage

Do you know Pavlo? I have to admit that 2 years ago, I’d never heard his name; since then, I hear it all the time, especially since I began traveling to the Lake Erie North Shore area … He seems to be very big down there. He’s a Greek-Canadian Internati ...

Mastronardi 2005 Gewurztraminer

I once heard a rumour that we drink gewurzt too young … it’s not a wine meant for long term aging but one or two years in bottle, allows the wine to really develop some great flavours and aromas. Two years removed from vintage date, this wine has smells ...

Mastronardi 2005 Cabernet Franc Reserve

When first opened, you get a whiff of this one and wonder, “what the heck am I drinking?” This one is loaded with lots of green vegetable matter on the nose … thankfully, that blows off in about 20 minutes and reveals something more than drinkable. The ...

Mastronardi 2004 Cabernet Franc

Mastronardi is another new winery out in the Lake Erie North Shore area, and proves once again why this region of Ontario is a gem for wine lovers; the wines coming out of this region are truly wonderful. This Cabernet Franc shows some raspberry and cher ...

Mastronardi 2002 Merlot

★★★★
