Serego Aligheri Possessioni Rosso 2007 (Veneto)
$14.95 (LCBO #447326)
The best vintage of this wine I have tasted. Dense purple-black colour with a bouquet of cedar, black cherry and blackcurrant; richly extracted and full on the palate with ripe fruit flavours of plum and black cherry. Great value. (89)
Food match: roast beef; fresh parmesan
Surani Pietrariccia Fiano 2008 (Apulia)
$16.95 (Vintages #159582)
Yellow straw colour with an intense bouquet of ripe peach and tropical fruits; full-bodied, beautifully balanced, full on the palate with lively pineapple acidity. Great length. (91)
Food match: lobster; pork loin
Henri Bourgeois Petit Bourgeois Sauvignon Banc 2008 (Loire)

A bargain Sauvignon from the Loire. Pale straw with a lime tint; intense nose of grapefruit and cut grass; medium-bodied with mouth-watering acidity. ****½ (89)
