Wine Tasting NotesA deepened crimson with a purple core. The nose is complex and beguiling, with notes of demi-glace and roasting pan juices, beneath scents of pipe tobacco, vanilla and pencil shavings oak - much more than just a simple varietal offering. The palate is full-bodied, refined and taut showing dark, black conserve fruit flavors with Satsuma plum notes to the fore. Further liqueur chocolate...

BONFIRE bubbles! Why not capture the seasonal mood with a sparkling Aussie shiraz? This stylish sparkler is full of intense raspberry-ripple flavours, but full-bodied enough to make it a good match with devils-on- horseback and moreish little savouries.

One of a druid's blessings is the chance to preside at naming ceremonies. There's something very solemn about giving a child a name - one that is given with love, with care, with consideration for our hopes for their future and yet knowing that they stand at just one point - currently the latest - in their families' traditions. And yet sometimes you do wonder. I mean take this morning. I know that...

We had friends over for dinner last night - an event booked months in advance due mostly to their social calendar. The last time we ate at their place we were served a magnificent feast involving rabbit and goat and many things fabulous, so I decided it was a good excuse to go for a full meal of recipes from Tetsuya's book . We started with a cold soup of carrot and saffron with beancurd, served with...

Our weekend really started yesterday. I finished my work up early and took Breanna and the dog for a long walk in the woods. That’s a pretty nice way to end the week - a little communing with nature and all that. We won’t be able to do it much longer so we made the most of it. Then we had the movie night that I mentioned . Once the kids were in bed, George and I decided to unwind with...

Mornington Peninsula, Victoria, Australia. Sangiovese , Shiraz and Pinot noir . 13.5%. Screwcap . Approx $A31. The upside down text on the label has the rather cryptic message in the land of mules there are no rules . What a curious, but thoroughly delicious wine. I started the night trying to dissect and detect the various components. It's a futile exercise, the strands are well hidden and the final...

Head Wines 'The Brunette' Syrah 2008 (Barossa Valley, SA) $35, Screwcap, 13.5% 'The Brunette' comes from a high elevation vineyard in Moppa, which consists of heavy soils of deep red clay and ironstone that give structure, longevity and reward from cellaring. Admirably, this wine matches that description well. What I particularly like is the restraint on offer, though this equals a desperate need for...

There's no better way to get in the spirit of the season than by pouring a fizzy and festive cocktail like this sparkling pomegranate-elderflower concoction. It's blushing color is reminiscent of Fall sunsets and falling leaves, while the effervescent texture screams holiday. The elderflower adds a hint of syrupy sweetness that's not cloying or overly floral. This cocktail may be girlie, but it's...

It was another fantastic winemaker’s dinner at Bb33, the restaurant within the Delta Chelsea hotel in downtown Toronto, and executive chef Gino Guercio outdid himself once again (c lick here to see my previous Bb33 dinner I attended for Bodegas Norton ). The winery this time was the Chilean self described “boutique” Errazuriz, with guest speaker Michel Coutonlenc, regional director,...

It’s to be expected of course. When you have the reputation as one of the best wineries in all of Australia you’re going to have people wanting your wine. So Rick Kinzbrunner at Giaconda (http://www.giaconda.com.au/) sells his wines a little differently. If you want a Giaconda, like the Warner Vineyard Shiraz from 2008, then you [...]
