Twenty Twenty-Seven 2011 Foxcroft Vineyard Riesling

★★★★

Ontario's most popular grape is popular with our virtual wineries too ... Kevin Panagapka has a minimum of two vineyard designated Riesling every year. His Foxcroft seems to balance the beauty of bright acidity with the right amount of sweetness. Aromas ...

Twenty Twenty-Seven 2011 Falls Vineyard Riesling

★★★★

Lovely nose of tropical fruit and delicious apple with a nice hint of pineapple, which is odd but welcome. The palate brings the pineapple and mixes it with sweet white peach then green apple shows up on the finish. Good acid / sweet balance. Price: $1 ...

Twenty Twenty-Seven 2010 Queenston Road Pinot Noir

★★★½

Complex nose of spiced-raspbery and cherry with a hint of floral - namely violets - along with a gentle-general-spicyness ... a very pretty and alluring nose. The palate is fruit dominated, most noticeably red fruit, with white pepper, spices, cinnamon a ...

Twenty Twenty-Seven 2010 "19th Street" Chardonnay

★★★★½

Chardonnays are a dime a dozen all over the world, except in Kentucky - I bumped into a winemaker there who swore to me that it doesn't grow well amongst all that bluegrass ... but everywhere else it's like a weed. This is the first time I've seen the ne ...

Twenty Twenty-Seven 2009 Foxcroft Riesling

★★★★½

This is the pet project of one Kevin Panagapka - 20-27 Cellars - and his baby is Riesling, a grape he has been making wine from since the very beginning of his virtual winery experience. This particular version comes from the Foxcroft Vineyard (part of t ...

Twenty Twenty-Seven 2009 Featherstone Riesling

Twenty Twenty-Seven 2008 Falls Vineyard Riesling

★★★★½

Kevin Panagapka knows how to make Riesling - he's proven it two years in a row (2007 and 2008) with his Featherstone Vineyard version. This year, he decided to make a second Riesling, using fruit from the Falls Vineyard (located near Balls Falls). This ...

Twenty Twenty-Seven 2007 Riesling

Winemaker Kevin Panagapka has an idea. It’s not new, nor is it unique, but it does allow him to follow his passion of being a winemaker with his own label. He buys the best quality fruit he can and then, to make his wine, rents some space so that he can ...

Thomas & Vaughan 2007 Riesling

I know what you’re thinking, ‘I haven’t heard very much from Thomas and Vaughan lately’ … Well, it seems that while they were under the control of Diamond Estates (Lakeview, Eastdell, Dan Aykroyd) they were very much an after-thought. Now under new owner ...

Thirty Bench 2011 Triangle Riesling

★★★★

There are everyday Rieslings - and then there are special Rieslings - this one falls into the latter category as the price keeps it out of the everyday category, but what's in the bottle makes it something very special. The nose is loaded with mineral, l ...

Thirty Bench 2011 Riesling ‘Steel Post’

★★★★

When I tried this wine upon its released) it really was kinda messy – soft and fruity and lacking individual character … Now, some months later, this wine has finally found its identity – and it shows it in spades. The nose is full of lemon / lime pith a ...
