WineAlign

David Lawrason

New Zealand is comfortably installed as a trustworthy source of vibrant, fresh and intense wines, lead by sauvignon blanc and pinot noir.  But does it have home run, truly memorable, even legendary wines?  Well yes, but they are known to a very few, and the way things work in Ontario, they remain squirreled away in the inner workings of Vintages as In Store Discoveries or Vintages On-Line Exclusives. Yes they are available, and the quantity will never be large, and keeners can ferret them out.  But why does it take a chance tasting in Kingston to expose them to the local media?  I found four fantastic wines offered by Lifford Agencies from top drawer wineries like Craggy Range, Felton Road and Ata Rangi – and I was surprised to learn that they are currently available at Vintages, if in limited quantities at less than a dozen stores. And they have been available for weeks, indeed months.  Which is where WineAlign can help enormously.  The link below will automatically locate the stash closest to you (or click on the inventory icon to find the wine).  Here are the four wines in the NZ Treasure Hunt, all soaring well past the 90 point level.  Check them out at here: NZ Treasure Hunt .
