Muros Antigos, Alvarinho 2017 from Monçao e Melgaço 🇵🇹
I have been reminding myself to drink more Portuguese wines, and this one was definitely a great step for this objective. In Vinho Verde, this small region of Monção and Melgaço is the hub for 100 % Alvarinho wines. As it pours in the glass, it was surprising to see a lemon color with gold reflections in it. Aromas of orange blossom, pear and pineapple lingers from nose through palate. The moment I’ve tasted it, I knew that it was going to be a good friend with my home-made sushi. Cheers!

Finally got a chance to share couple of thoughts on Tasting Climate Change conference❄️🔥🍷 The conference started with a snow storm on a morning in November - which was quite unexpected even in Quebec to have it so early. Of course, climate change has been on our radar for a long time, but this conference was focused on the wine business, starting from viticulture until distribution of wine bottles. It was all about how climate change effects wine business, and more importantly what are the solutions so that the wine business has less and eventually no contribution to global warming. It gave me a lot to think about and see things with a different point of view.
For those you interested to get deeper information on the content of the conference - Alistair Cooper MW @alistaircoopermw published today on Jancis Robinson website an article and shared all the highlights and details of the day. I’ve enjoyed a lot this article and see his point of view on the topics discussed.
Another great part of the conference was the wine booth, where I got to taste many different wines - I had chance to taste wines from Canada, including @vinsduquebec , @winesofns and @winecountryont , but also international wines, from @laroche_wines , @riojawine_ca , @migueltorrescl , @jacksonfamilywines and more. It was a great venue. Cheers! •

Campo Viejo, Rioja Reserva 2014🇪🇸🍷 Reserva wines in Spain has to be aged in the cellar and in the oak in the certain period of time before they can be marketed. That’s why when I buy a wine like this, with the price range that it has, I always have huge appreciation. This wine is balanced with good complexity with black fruits like plum and black berry, oak aromas of vanilla, coffee and cedar. I would recommend this wine, if you appreciate aged wines and you don’t want to break your budget. Cheers! •
