Meinhard Forstreiter ‘Grooner’ Grüner Veltliner 2012
Neiderösterreich, Austria $15.20 (168625) 12.0% alcohol
This is one of those value-laden, can’t-miss, go-to wines when pairing with chicken, pork, white pizza or gilled calamari rings—it’s über versatile at the table. Floral notes, pit fruit and mineral notes on the nose, it bathes the palate with a rich ripe river of honeydew melon, white peach and tangy lemon zest. It’s mid weight with good mouth feel and crisp, refreshing, mouth-watering finish. What’s not to like? (Vic Harradine) 
Nobilo ‘Monkey Bay’ Pinot Grigio 2013
New Zealand $13.95 (93666) 13.0% alcohol
Floral, spice and citrus aromas mingle with notions of honeydew melon prior to bathing the palate with a balanced and flavourful wash of creamy smooth ripe peach and pear garnished with a light splash of Meyer lemon. It’s light on its feet with a mid-length slightly off-dry finish and aftertaste. Pour on its own or alongside lighter-styled appetizers. Good value. (Vic Harradine)

Shingleback ‘Haycutters’ Sauvignon Blanc/Semillon 2012
Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale, Australia $15.95 (207365) 12.0% alcohol
Aromas of lemon-lime, floral notes and hints of melon precede a racy mouthful of lemon zest, grapefruit pith and lively gooseberry. It’s medium bodied and nicely textured with crisp, refreshing finish and aftertaste. Pour with sushi, chèvre or breaded and grilled calamari. (Vic Harradine) 
Strewn ‘Rogue’s Lot’ Cabernet Sauvignon-Cabernet Franc 2011
VQA Niagara Peninsula $13.95 (65342) 12.9% alcohol
A pretty even split of the two grapes listed with a splash of Merlot, it jumps from the glass with a swashbuckling array of aromas—forest floor, pipe tobacco and exotic spice. It’s fully flavoured and creamy-smooth textured with a palate-coating wash of black currant, dark juicy cherry and rustic hints of grainy tannin and sour cherry. The price-quality balance tips in your favour and gets even better with food—burgers, red pizza or steak. (Vic Harradine)
Strewn Gewürztraminer 2012
VQA Niagara Peninsula $12.95 (65359) 12.8% alcohol
Exotic spice, rose petals and honeyed orchard fruit presage a spice-laden river of racy lemon-lime citrus, grilled pineapple and a salad bowl of ripe tropical fruit. It’s light-medium weight with good texture and a mid-length finish. This pours well alongside white pizza, roast or grilled chicken. There’s good value to be had here. (Vic Harradine)
