This is another Andrezj Lipinski creation for the new winery Colaneri. The 2008 vintage was not the greatest, so winemakers really had to work with the fruit to make good wine. Andrezj's a long timer here in Ontario, so he's seen his share of the good, the bad and the ugly. The nose is pretty with a good mix of fruit: strawberry, raspberry, sour cherry and rhubarb. The palate is just as interesting with sour cherry, cranberry, spice and a kiss of oak; surprising considering this wine was aged 13 months in the stuff. It all ends with an interesting red fruit and spiced finish. Price: $34.00 - Rating: ****
