Big Wine Under $15
By the middle of summer, my grilling technique is perfected and each weekend begs for company around the BBQ. What better than a big red to wash down whatever's being grilled? The 2007 Arthouse Shiraz With A Touch of Mourverdre (LCBO# 148593), is a collaboration of Paarl's Juno winery with South African wine legend Charles Back. It's $14.95  but holds its smoky, leathery but surprisingly bright dark cherry taste with wines well over $20. This is braai wine, or closer to home, burger wine. Click here to find an LCBO that stocks it. - Malcolm Jolley
