Last summer I was at the liquor store and wandered into the vintage section. Not knowing what I was looking for I choose to purchase "The wine of the month". "Shiraz/Malbec 1998 Clare Valley, South Australia” (Leasingham Wines) This bottle of wine transformed me from a "take it or leave it" wine drinker into a "I really like this red/white stuff" kind a guy. This is one of the best Wines I've tasted to date. Fortunately I had the good sense to take a little card that describes the wine or it would be nothing more than a sweet obscure memory. Unfortunately I tossed the card into the paper junk pile which I’m sure resides in every household. Today while cleaning a neglected kitchen cupboard I found the "card" and decided "Never again". I now have a new category in my blog "wines I like" where I can put information like this. I hope to add lots of other tasty treats over time as I live in the Niagara region of Ontario and since I quit smoking I have the ability to appreciate this beverage on a new found level.
