J. Lohr October Night Chardonnay 2011<\/strong><\/a>, Arroyo Seco, Monterey County, California<\/p>\n

The grapes were picked in late October to achieve more concentration of flavour. Lovely aromas of melon, butterscotch, toasted almond and green apple.

Mission Hill Quatrain 2008<\/strong><\/a>, V.Q.A., Okanagan Valley, British Columbia<\/p>\n

Spectacularly rich, complex and deep. This towering red offers aromas of dark red fruit, smoke, dried herbs and cigar box. It’s a multi-layered wine that will cellar very well. Truly one of Canada’s flagship wines. Pair with: robust meat dishes. Drink: 2013-2020. 218636 14% XD 750 mL $41.95 Score: 95\/100.\u00a0\u00a0 Top Rated Red Wine<\/p>\n

L.A. Cetto Cabernet Sauvignon 2010<\/strong><\/a>, Guadalupe Valley, Baja California, Mexico<\/p>\n

Fleshy ripe black and purple plum aromas with some blueberry jam. The palate is ultra-smooth and delicious with more dark fruit flavours. This is an absolutely incredible wine for the price point. Pair with combination pizza, spaghetti and meatballs or cold cuts. Drink: 2013-2016. 114066 13.5% XD 750 mL $11.95 Score: 89\/100.\u00a0\u00a0 Best Value Red Wine\"Flat<\/a><\/p>\n
