Two Santa Wines in Montreal

Tasted September 2011: Santa Cristina Sangiovese 2009 – I had a bottle of this wine in Montreal. It is not sold in Ontario but I did find it on saq.com (Quebec liquor store) for $14.95. There were notes of black pepper, oak and red cherry. The wine had strong tannins and probably could easily spend another few years in the cellar. JC84

Tasted September 2011: Santa Teresa Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 – This is another bottle I had while in Montreal. Again, not a wine that is available in Ontario. I didn’t find it on the saq.com either. It took a while to open up. It was a nice accompaniment to our dinner at Le Grain De Sel. JC85
