Aure 2010 Umoja - Cabernet Franc
This new winery on the Beamsville Bench might end up being one to watch. The name for the wine comes from the Swahili language and means "unity" - the wine took on that name because the winery was hosting an event for International Needs on the day it wa ...
Aure 2010 Riesling
I tried to get in to taste some of Aure's wines back in February (2012) but they are closed for the winter months ... that's what happens when you're a new winery with an unproven track record. I finally got to taste this wine during Cuvee 2012. The nose ...
Angels Gate 2011 Sauvignon Blanc
Nose of white flowers with hints of grass lead to a palate that’s delicately citrus with lemon pith and mellow grapefruit; all with a pleasant lingering finish. Price: $13.95 – Rating: *** ½+
Angels Gate 2010 Mountainview Chardonnay
This is a wine for Chardonnay lovers. A nice pear perfumed nose leads to a palate of vanilla with some peach notes - and good refreshing acidity on the finish. A pleasant summer time sipper. Price: $18.95 - Rating: *** 1/2
Angels Gate 2010 Merlot
The nose is pretty rough and not something you can easily identify with , but the palate is well integrated with dark fruit and elements of cocoa infused tannins. Not you typical smooth, easy drinking Merlot but one that will match nicely with meat. Pri ...
Angels Gate 2010 Archangel Chardonnay Sparkling
Bubbly wines are all over the place these days, especially from good old Ontari-ari-ari–o, there are plenty of reasons why sparkling does so well here in the province, but let’s look more at the end product instead of the why you should like it … after al ...
Angels Gate 2008 Sussreserve Riesling
This is a perennial favourite of mine made in a neat suss-reserve style. Suss-reserve is a method of wine making where you hold back some of the sweet juice (before fermenting into wine) and adding the hold over juice back into the bone dry finished prod ...
Angels Gate 2008 Pinot Noir
The aromas of this Pinot has plenty of cran-cherry nuances with strawberry and raspberry notes mixed in - very appealing and alluring. Lots of what's on the nose follows through on to the palate and it's red berry dominant with nice acidity and a pleasan ...

Angels Gate 2007 Archangel Pinot Noir Rosé
You can start any patio party off right by popping the cork on this bubbly. The smells are a dead ringer for apple juice and baked apples, while the palate shows off more complexity. There’s a big mineral component that kicks this wine off on the tongue ...
Angels Gate 2006 Sussreserve Riesling
Angels Gate has made this wine for as long as I can remember, though the past few vintages have not lived up to what I remember it being the first time I tried it; thankfully, this one brings me back to those good old days when the mere mention of this wi ...
Angels Gate 2006 Riesling
Angels Gate may have changed winemakers, but they continue their march towards the gates of heaven with some really spectacular wines. This is another fine example of a Beamsville Bench Riesling. The nose is peach and green apple dominated, while in the ...
Angels Gate 2006 Pinot Noir
2006 seems to have been good to Pinot Noir, case in point this offering from Angels Gate. What you get on the nose you’ll get on the palate: earthy, sour cherry, cranberry and violets; there are also mineral and tealeaf notes that appear only on the nos ...
Angels Gate 2005 Single Vineyard Gewurzraminer
Gewurztraminer was one of my first wine loves. It’s duality of spicy and fruity made it an interesting and tasty wine for a budding young wine lover; it also helped bridge the gap between sweet fruit wines and dry whites. This wonderful Gewurztraminer d ...
Angels Gate 2005 Old Vines Chardonnay
(Original Review) ... Anything with the word "old vines” in the title these days seems to be a hot commodity ... old vines Shiraz, old vines Zinfandel, old vines Riesling and of course old vines Chardonnay. Not surprising that we’d have some of these in ...
