Just finished another Niagra wine tasting day and found a new winery to add to my must return list:The Good Earth Vinyard & Winery.

They have an absolutely fabulous bistro. I had a barley risoto. Double smoked bacon. Nuff said.

I picked up a very nice Cab Franc and my daughter, a Pinot Noir.

The other wine of note was a Baco noir from Konzelmann, one of the older wineries in the area. It is a medium bodies fruity wine, but with very low acidity. It has fruity overtones, but a flavour I find hard to describe. Certainly very different from the more traditional French reds.

The low note was a visit to Lailey. On two previous accessions I picked up a superior Riesling with what I can only describe as a flower/perfumed nose and finish that I found both unique and tasty. Their 2013 Riesling was very disappointing. I did not try any of their reds or Chardonay as I was specifically looking for a Riesling.

Yet another awesome trip to Niagra and good restock of my dwindling supply
