CANUCK WINE

Canada may be more famous for hockey and maple syrup, and beer is more likely to be considered the beverage of choice, but the fact is that Canadians are producing and drinking some very good wines. However, many of these wines are almost unknown outside of the country. Can you even guess what wine won this year's All-Canadian wine championship? (Hint: It's from Nova Scotia!) Still stumped? I know I would be if I hadn't found the WineAccess site. Not only can you learn about Canadian wines, but the site also has informative articles and tasting notes covering some of the most famous and interesting wines in the world. For example, recent articles have explored white Burgundy, Fino Sherries and Italian Verdicchio. With lots of tasting notes and interesting articles, this site is definitely worth checking out. Oh, and in case you're still wondering, the answer is: 1999 Jost Vineyards Vidal Icewine.
