Essex Wine Review, Wine of the Month, September 2010
Wine of the Month - September 2010
Sanson Estate Syrah 2007

A well deserved Gold award winning wine at the 2010 All Canadian Wine Championships.

This very well could be the finest syrah from Lake Erie North Shore priced under $20. Intense dark fruit, black pepper, and silky tannins.  A joy to drink! This wine is a MUST BUY when touring Essex County’s vineyards.

When this syrah is gone, there won’t be any more like it for a while. The vines from which the grapes came from to make this wine have been pulled out.  Get some before it’s gone.

This is the second time this year a Sanson Estate wine has been chosen as “Wine of the month” (May 2010 - Sanson Estate Riesling 2008) . They have been producing some fantastic wines lately.

Muscedere Vineyards Rosé 2008 Review

4.80 overall score

Winemaker’s Notes:
Our 2008 Rosé was made by siphoning off juice from the Cabernet Franc must after twelve hours of skin contact and prior to fermentations. The twelve hours of skin contact slightly taints the juice which gives it a pink colour.

Enjoy this wine in the summer sun as a cocktail or with light appetizers and salad.

Hand-harvested on September 18th, 2008
Total production: 110 cases.

Winemaker’s Notes:
This blush wine is blend of raspberry dessert wine, apple and Vidal. It is a great little summer wine mixed with soda or for those who enjoy a sweet table wine. This wine complements the taste of spicy food or strong flavoured meats and cheese.
