This is a delightful wine, especially for summer. And it’s cool too: made 100% from the Symphony grape, making it rather rare indeed (imho). It has a lovely bouquet — very floral — and wonderful to taste. No oak.
You can have it with spicy food, but it’s a treat to drink it by itself. It’s the kind of wine that, after you have a glass, you think: hmmmm, I think I need another glass of that.
If you are lucky enough to live in the US, it’s only $8/bottle. Here in Ontario, it is $14.95 in the Vintages section, which is pretty good for that part of your local LCBO.
What else? It won the Gold Medal at the San Francisco Chronical Wine Competion, January 2007. And it’s perfect sipping wine on a warm summer night. You owe it to yourself to get some. 🙂

Excellent wine choice. I tried this last week and it was delicious with lebanese cuisine. Tomorrow, I’m just going to grab a bottle to relax and enjoy the taste on its own. If you get to the US, definitely try Les Alcusses, a nice south american red imported by Mark Soloman (this one’s sometimes hard to find but can be ordered) and of course, my favorite, Layer Cake shiraz… hard to find but definitely worth the hunt. LC makes other reds but the shiraz is by far the best.
