Ontario does do whites better than reds, but that doesn't mean the reds are bad. At last June's NiagaraCOOL tour to Cave Spring, Tom told us that their bread and butter is whites and 80% of what they make is white. Riesling and Chardonnay are good, consistent crops every year. PN is dependent of the weather, so is variable. CF and Merlot can usually ripen and are very good in good years. CS ripens in good years. 2005 and 2007 were good years. 2006 and 2008 have problems with reds.Bruce Hayes wrote:...This wine was a real eye-opener for me. I usually don't drink Ontario reds since, I had believed, Ontario did better with whites....
