Henry of Pelham Winery Baco Noir 2013, Niagara Escarpment, Ontario VQA, Canada: Solid value for this robust Baco Noir which offers attractive notes of dark fruit and smoke. Drink: 2013-2016. 270926 13% XD 750 mL $14.95 Score: 88/100. February 1, 2015 Best Value Red Wine. Full Review

Kacaba Vineyards Cabernet Franc 2011, V.Q.A., Niagara Escarpment, Ontario, Canada: Many people about Cabernet Sauvignon for cheddar, but I love a great Canadian Cabernet Franc. This one has a nose of savoury dried herbs and a touch of bell pepper that often accompanies Cabernet Franc, though not unpleasant at all. Full-bodied and smooth with fleshy black plums and a good finish. I'd pair this wine with Balderson Vintners' Cheddar for Red Wine, which is made with robust red wines in mind. Full disclosure: Balderson is a sponsor of the Canadian Wine Match, but I've been enjoying their cheeses for years. This wine really opens up after 1 hour of decanting.
