Henry of Pelham Family Tree 2016, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario V.Q.A., Canada: So vibrant, pretty and floral! This Niagara white wine blend of Viognier 40%, Chardonnay 30%, Gewurztraminer 15% and Chardonnay Musque 15% grapes delivers way beyond it's modest price point. Perfect for mild to medium curries and spices as well as a chilled aperitif. Drink: 2018-2019. 251116 13% M 750 mL  $13.75 Score: 91/100. June 7, 2020 Best Value White Wine.

Southbrook Vineyards Orange Wine 2016, Ontario V.Q.A., Canada: Love this weirdly wonderful wine! Aromas of apple cider and yellow plum. A biodynamic and organic wine made from small lot parcels of the winery's estate vineyards with a wild yeast ferment on stems and skins grapes. Seductive amber colour. It's bottled cloudy and free of sulphites. Terrific acidity for fresh seafood. If you're curious about the new orange wine trend, try this one. Pair with free range chicken. Drink: 2017-2020. 628065 12% XD 750 mL  $29.95 Score: 93/100. September 4, 2017 Top Rated Rosé Wine. Outstanding Organic Wine Full Review
Château Montaud Rosé 2016, Côtes De Provence, Provence A.C., France: A gorgeous southern French rosé from the heart of rosé country: Provence. All rosés are dry in style here. Aromas of field strawberry and dried herbs. Lip-smacking delicious! Pair with roast chicken. Vintages Wine Panel: This tasty pink wine shows notes of strawberry, rhubarb, watermelon and gentle spice on the nose. Dry and medium bodied, it’s ripe, round and refreshing. Settle into a chaise lounge and soak up some rays as you sip this delicious rosé. My note: This is why I love rose from Provence! Light and summery yet packed with flavour! Perfectly calibrated for happiness. Drink: 2017-2018. 226613 12% D 750 mL  $17.95 Score: 88/100. August 5, 2017 Best Value Rosé Wine. Charming Grilled Chicken Wine Full Review
