Christmas Wines

I do hope every one has a Happy, Healthy, and prosperous 209.  Enjoy the good times with your family and friends.
The Holiday season is a peak time for buying, drinking and enjoying the wines of Canada. In our home visitors often drop by invited or unvited ( thats okay too) bringing with them bottles of Wine. Many for some reason ( what website!) bring Canadian wines. Bless them.

Even when we have a little party and invite friend over despite the number of empty bottles at the end of the evening we often end up with more wine than we started with. This is of course is a good thing and allows me the opportunity to taste different wines through out the holiday season.  So, as  we enjoy the fruits of the holiday season I shell inform you of the wines we have had the pleasure of tasting.
