Niagara’s Southbrook winery has just released two more wines in its Poetica line. The stylish labels feature a poem by a Canadian artist. Both wines are stunners from the great summer of 2007. A luscious, rich, lingering Chardonnay and a spicy, fruity, complex (with a hint of the Mediterrean) Cab/Merlot . They are premium priced and would make wonderful dinner party wine or could solve a gift problem for your favourite wino. While you could certainly age both wines they are drinking beautifully now. To buy, contact the winery. www.southbrook.com
