One of my favourite writers, Clifton Fadiman, said that if food is the body of good living, wine is its soul. This robust red comforts both body and soul.
There are also still lots of terrific wines in stores from the June 8 LCBO Vintages Release … you’ll find 14 of my reviews in the Catalogue, plus 67 wines reviewed on the site. That should keep you going for a while, don’t you think?
Cheers,
Natalie

Delicious! Full-bodied, savoury, meaty and juicy. Smooth texture with black fleshy fruit and a smoky finish. You can’t beat this price. Great party wine. Food matches: roast beef and steak, hearty casseroles, stews.
