  La Vielle Ferme Cotes-du-Luberon Blanc 2008

  Snoothrank: Starting at $13^.99

  Definitely not your fine wine, but very good price point ($11.95 CAD) if you're hosting a group of people for a casual party / barbecue. Nose: Floral, Vanilla, Honey Medium-Bodied, slightly acidic, buttery. Went well with vegetables and dill dip. Will go well with savoury/aromatic...

  Guido Porro Barolo "Vigna Santa Caterina" 2004

  Snoothrank:

  Very intense nose, like stepping in a meadow with crushed alpine flowers, a touch of crushed chive, grass, cow patty, nettle then liquory fruit that is spicy and complex with a bit of a dried/concentrated note to the wild berry fruit 3+ Big in the mouth with a polished smooth feel,... Read moreVery intense nose, like stepping in a meadow with crushed alpine flowers, a touch of crushed chive, grass, cow patty, nettle then liquory fruit that is spicy and complex with a bit of a dried/concentrated note to the wild berry fruit 3+ Big in the mouth with a polished smooth feel, packed with perfectly ripe tannins and excellent acids, faceted and jewel like 3 Dense and slightly chewy with dark fruits/blackberry/wild cherry tones, slightly astringent mineral/earth notes, a slight suggestion of almond bitterness 3+ Tannins are sweet on the finish but really close in quickly constricting the very pure core of red fruits until an abrupt end but even then the tannins seem to squeeze out a little dollop of a finale with bitter cherry fruit edged in slight vegetal/herbal tones, excellent freshness here 3    (hide)

  Mad Fish Western Australia Shiraz 2003

  Snoothrank:

  A rich shiraz, vibrancy with every sip. A long lasting taste, with a grind of ... twice baked potatoes with chives. A gorgeous label, elegant symbolism, tactile embossing on the front is a sweet touch
