We are open today despite the snow. Our walks are shovelled and driveways are plowed. Don't let the winter weather keep you from enjoying some fine wine.

From Mountain Road Wine Company, a comparative chardonnay tasting from vines planted since 1983. They need to be opened early and not served too cold:

1. Mountain Road Chardonnay Barrel Fermented 2005 S. Kocsis Vineyard Niagara, $12 at winery: some underbrush, mushrooms, forest floor, higher acid, oaky wonder. Great value at this price. 13.7 % ABV. Gold Medalist at 2010 Royal Winter Fair Toronto. Quality/price rating 91 points by Dean Tudor.

What wine would you pair with World Series Baseball? I recommend a Cab Blend for Tigers fans. Never change your stripes. Try a Riceroni and Riesling if you're looking for the San Francisco treat.
