57$ SAQ 2007 Very disappointing. Oakyness which partially got more discreet after 24h. Still not worth the price. Give me a great Chablis for the same price or an exceptional St-Aubin for less instead! — 11 years ago

31$ SAQ 2007 Disappointed since it should be an excellent vintage but I guess the winemaker wanted to please with, it seems, oak. Good at first but then a bitter, gassy aftertaste. — 11 years ago

68$ SAQ Rich, complex Nebbiolo which seems like a St-Émilion distant cousin! Pepper, cherries, long finale... For the cellar. — 11 years ago

21$ SAQ Riesling Good basic Riesling. Got better with 24h aération. Mistake: having à dry Riesling as this one for l'apéro: too much acidity for my stomach. To have with choucroute garnie or fish. — 11 years ago

20$ SAQ 2012 Disappointing at first but opened at noon and left to breathe in the bottle until dinner - better - even better the next day (I will definitely start to open the bottles at lunchtime and let them breathe slowly in the bottle until dinner - even whites. Exception: young very tannic Bordeaux which I should even carafe at noon). More floral than fruity so not typical but good at that price. — 11 years ago

57$ SAQ Needed 24h breathing. Good after that. A bit too much residual sugar for a typical Riesling. Still complex and interesting, but not at that price. — 11 years ago

32$ SAQ Gewurtzraminer The winner of our tasting. We found it more typical of the gewurtz we had in Alsace, with residual sugar, but with nice complexity. Was the best match with the wood- oven flammuechkes. — 11 years ago

20$ SAQ No. Has a overheated grape taste like bad Zinfandel. Nausea. — 11 years ago

52$ SAQ 2009 Excellent and for me typical of good Bourgogne pinot noir at that price. Turbid, rich fruit, moderately complex (in accordance to the price). Could certainly age a few years. — 11 years ago
