This one is special ... we brought it to Montreal to bring to a favorite restaurant where we can bring our own wine .... But we didn't get to try it at the Greek Restaurant (Duluth St) ... A funny thing happened on the way there ... We went by a Portuguese place on St Laurent ... Tapas and martini's (and a free martini for the ladies before 7 - that clinched it for Del).

It was a taste explosion ... We split 6 tapas ... cod, octopus, duck etc ... And she had a lobster (well, I had a piece) and a great bottle of Portuguese white wine that was paired excellently with the dishes ...
Oh, right ... When we got back to the hotel ... Tried the red ... Not good!!! There was a perfumy smell and an aftertaste that was not very good.
Good thing there was a good bottle of white in the fridge ... TaraPaca (Sauv Blanc) from Chile ... being former military members, we travel prepared!!

I don't usually enjoy an "oaked" Chardonnay but I was pleasantly surprised with this one. The bottle said it was "lightly oaked" so I tried it ... and liked it! The aromas were of ripe citrus and tropical fruit and had a fresh crisp finish. a solid 7.5/10 and I would buy this Chardonnay again!

Yes, I like Sauvignon Blanc ... but I think I've found something that is growing on me ... not enough to replace my Sauv of course ... but really starting to enjoy Pinot Grigio!
ARGENTO PINOT GRIGIO
LCBO 620492 | 750 mL bottle
One word ... "Tasty" ... it didn't really have a great aroma (maybe it was too chilled) ... but the taste/flavor was worth the review! Although light colored (kinda a red flag for me) it featured rich peach flavors (with a hint of pineapple) and a refreshingly crisp finish! Very pleasant just on it's own ... although it was right at home with my pizza tonight!!
The first selection from Argentina and a winner I would buy again. 7.5/10 ....
