  Cellier des Chartreux "Iles Blanches" Viognier 2004 Vin de Pays d'Oc $16.27 A quite luscious, mouth-filling Viognier, with honeyed notes on apricot and peach fruit and crisp citrus acidity. The texture is smooth, verging on creamy, and it pairs well with a grilled chicken salad with an orange-based dressing. The Ontario agent is Small Winemakers Collection at www.smallwinemakers.ca. (RP)   Katnook "Founder's Block" Shiraz 2002 Coonawarra $18.30 A lovely, rich, fruity Shiraz with attractive herbal notes. Flavours of dark plum, raspberry, coffee, mint and pepper predominate, and they're in very good proportion with the acidity. Well made, well priced, and a great partner for grilled rack of lamb. The Ontario agent is Charton-Hobbs at www.chartonhobbs.com (RP) |
