Conde Valdemar Rioja Reserva 2009
If you like older #wine , this red is 9 years old and worth a taste. It still has good acidity and medium tannins. Still showing some red cherry, coconut, and smoke, but evolving into some forest floor. Mature and still kicking! Smoked pork chops would make a fine #winepairing . #barrie #downtownbarrie #alliston#orillia #collingwood #bradford #newmarket#simcoecountyliving #livinginsimcoecounty
Cave Spring Rose 2017
The answer is Rose. The question is a #winepairing for falafel with a dash of hot sauce? The bright fruit in this #wine stands up to the heat in the sauce and the acidity cuts through the oiliness of the falafel.

Keint-He Portage Rose 2017
One of my finds from Prince Edward County 
. A deeply pink Pinot Noir Rose where light floral, strawberry, and herbs delicately lift over a little citrus. If you try it with some pasta a la Nicoise, you can pretend you’re in Provence (with your Canadian friend). #barrie #downtownbarrie #alliston #orillia#collingwood #bradford #newmarket#simcoecountyliving #livinginsimcoecounty Keint-he Winery & Vineyards
Pierre Amadieu Cairanne Les Hautes Rives 2015
Very good #wine formerly designated as Cotes du Rhone Village, but elevated to Cru status in 2016. Medium bodied and unoaked with pure fruit flavours of dark plum and blackberry tinged with spice, lavender, and black pepper. If your BBQ is still out, try it with bacon wrapped filet mignon or grilled lamb.#barrie #downtownbarrie #alliston #orillia#collingwood #bradford #newmarket#simcoecountyliving#livinginsimcoecounty#winejourneys Amadieu Pierre
Momi Maremma Toscana Rosso 2014
A lesser known, but very good, red #wine from nearer the coast in Tuscany. It’s deep purple and medium to full bodied with pronounced blackberry, dark plum, and oak spice. Match it with pizza for a#winepairing for a delicious evening. #barrie#downtownbarrie #alliston #orillia #collingwood#bradford #newmarket #simcoecountyliving#livinginsimcoecounty
Honsberger Estate Cabernet Franc 2016
Finally made it to Honsberger Estate Winery Niagara last night for a summer dinner. Their Cab Franc was a super #winepairing with their Beef Burrito. The#wine notes of raspberry/blackberry, black cherry, and spice really suited the dish. #barrie#downtownbarrie #alliston #orillia #collingwood#bradford #newmarket #simcoecountyliving#livinginsimcoecounty
Famille Perrin Cotes du Rhone Rose Reserve 2017
Famille Perrin is a large scale operation, but they care about quality and make some good value wines like this one. The grapes for this #wine are sourced from around Orange and they produce a good to very good Provençal style of Rose. It very pale with watermelon, light cherry, rose petal, some herbal spiciness, and a medium body. Try it with foods featuring olives like a Muffuletta sandwich. #barrie#downtownbarrie #alliston #orillia #collingwood #bradford #newmarket#simcoecountyliving #livinginsimcoecounty
Ravine Vineyard Meritage 2014
Quite lovely Niagara red #wine with sweet oak spice, moderate tannins, vanilla, black cherries, dark plums, and blueberries. Nice to serve with some BBQ bacon wrapped turkey medallions with blueberry BBQ sauce. #barrie#downtownbarrie #alliston #orillia #collingwood #bradford #newmarket#simcoecountyliving #livinginsimcoecounty Ravine Vineyard Estate Winery
