Good Price for a Good Bold California Red. Sometimes a little jammy... Also on sale at RCLS, but slightly cheaper and AirMiles here.
Looks like a medium bold Chianti, and dry... not for a heavy red meat...
Nice wine from BC, complimentary blend and including Cab Franc... not sure what Terroir "Driven" means, but nice wine! On Sale at RCLS, but cheaper here Sobeys this week + AirMiles
A nice robust, off dry Malbec (at least to me) ... this is for a heavy red meat :)
Dec 17-Dec 26 - Note the 2 extra days of on Sale.
Michael's Red Freakshows are a little bit sweet and jammy for me. That might work with his Chardonnay :) Gonna try it... it's from Lodi too.
A little off bold, a little off dry (maybe for me) Cab Sav... for 13.99 , I'll take a shot !
Might not normally look at this , but apparently a Bold, but dry Cab Sav/Malbec Blend. For 14.99, why not try ?
Dec 16-Dec 24 - They have a special if you buy any 4 of 6 wines, you receive 10,000 Optimum pts. I'm seeing a trend that the Wines that offer the 10,000 Optimum points can be on Sale elsewhere for a much better Sale price. I think you're paying more $ for the points....

I've said before about not really being a
big fan of Petit Verdot wines, but this one from Australia looks entertaining to try. This is one of the 6 wines.
Nice wine from BC, complimentary blend including Cab Franc... not sure what Terroir "Driven" means, but nice wine! This is one of the 6 wines. Cheaper at Sobeys this week.
Honorable Mention 1.75L good value/good price

This is the notch up Barolo from Fontanafredda... white meats and pastas...
This isn't a "great" Bordeaux, but for $16.99, is a good value!
Want to try this one with some soft cheeses... $12 off. Should be worth it... looks dry like I like 'em
Dec 10-Dec 16 - These are 6 pack prices. Spend $125 = 100 Airmiles. Spend $250 = 250 Airmiles. Not a lot to be excited about.
Good Price for a good Burgundy Pinot Noir or Chardonnay ! Good sale price...!

This is my favorite go to house Chardonnay, Was 16.49 last week at WP. Still a good price...
This Vinter's Reserve is a good value at $18.99 It's KJ's Pinot Noir sister to my favorite Chardonnay...

tbh, this is a space filler... Pinot Noir, average ... member price $14.98.. okay Pinot Noir, but pretty average...

Dec 9-Dec 13 - Some bubbles this week at WP... if you like, check them out.
Dec 3-Dec 9 - These are 6 pack prices.
A good Cab Sav, and can be found on sale a lot. The 6 pack price is $21.99, if you buy a case, it is about $18.75 each. Very robust, need a strong flavorful meal to pair this with. Also on Sale at RCLS $19.98, if you want less than 12.
An okay Pinot Noir, not as nice as their Sonoma in my book, but nothing to be ashamed of :)
This is my 2nd favorite house Rioja. Recommended.
Dec 3-Dec 9 - not a lot this week :(
Not necessarily dry enough for me... nice with a "rich" flavorful red meat/dish.
Dec 2-Dec 6 - They have a special if you buy any 4 of 6 wines, you receive 10,000 Optimum pts. I'm seeing a trend that the Wines that offer the 10,000 Optimum points can be on Sale elsewhere for a much better Sale price. I think you're paying more $ for the points....

This is the Russian River version (and not Central Coast). Was on sale last week at RCLS, but this price is $4 less.
This is my favorite go to house Chardonnay, I'll be getting a case for the holidays
Always a great Merlot...
I'm not sure this is a great Sale price, but for $21.99, it's in my price point for an excuse to try another Rioja !
Nov 26-Dec 2 - These are 6 pack prices. Spend $125=125 Airmiles.
As described before, a nice BC Pinot Gris
A nice Cab Sav. May not be dry enough for me because it is soooo robust. On sale at RCLS for $27.98
I find Mission Hill Reserve wines are good value... (a little bit of dirt in them)
Nov 26-Dec 2
Similar to above, this is a real nice GSM, but may not be dry enough for me because it is soooo robust. If you'd like to model a GSM after something, this is a good candidate.
A nice medium robust Sangiovese. I like Sangiovese as they can be red fruit, oaky, and dirt all at once. Bonus for me, this one is dry enough :)
Nov 25-Nov 29 - They have a special if you buy any 4 of 6 wines, you receive 10,000 Optimum pts. I'm seeing a trend that the Wines that offer the 10,000 Optimum points can be on Sale elsewhere for a much better Sale price. I think you're paying more $ for the points....
I real nice Cab Sav, at a good price if it's affordable to you. It is a little bit too jammy for me, but if you like that, you'll love this...
Haven't tried their Chardonnay, but might this week... The price is so-so as it is one of the 6 wines.
If this is the Russian River version (and not Central Coast), this is a nice Pinot Noir. The price is so-so as it is one of the 6 wines.
Nov 25-Nov 29 - WP is having a BIG sale now for Black Friday (kid in a candy store, as quantities last.) There are a lot of great wines (3 pages) on Sale depending on your price point. I recommend going to: https://www.willowpark.net/collections/weekly-specials-1 I'll try and recommend a few highlights below.
Introduced to us by friends... very nice Pinot.
Nice Lodi Zinfandel.
Not the best year, but for $30, I'd like to compare :)
As described before, a good BC winery...
I want to try this one from Sonoma, looks great...!
Update: was a good one to try. I expected a little more umph!
This isn't a real 'great' Sale Price, but it is a real nice wine!
A rare Burgundy White... Looks very interesting. Looks dry and mineral tastes.. right down my alley!
Update: is great! went back and bought a case for the cellar.
Nov 19-Nov 25 - These are 6 pack prices. Wine CASE LOT SALE! Spend $150=150 Airmiles. Spend $300=400 Airmiles.
A cheap okay Sav Blanc. Case Price $10.84/each !
A nice BC Blend. Case Price 14.18/each.
A very bold Zinfandel Blend. Sweet for me, depending on the food, but a very good Case price if you like this. I need a very bold steak or greasy Pizza to go with this :) Case Price $25.00/each.
Discussed this one before (too sweet for me) so if you've tried it, this is a good case price. Case Price $11.68/each. Non-Case Sale price at Coop = $13.99
Again, discussed this one before (too sweet for me) so if you've tried it, this is a good case price. Case Price $16.68/each. Non-Case Sale price at Coop = $18.99

Too sweet for me, but if you've tried. Sobeys Case Lot $16.68/each.
Have I mentioned this good house Rose before ? This was cheaper last week, but 11.99 is still good.

I tried this Shiraz/Syrah a couple of years ago. Aged in Whiskey Barrels! Wow factor! I've since moved on from this wine, but very Bold! If you like Bold, try this at least once. The price is so-so as it is one of the 6 wines.
Like this Canadian Blend, taste the dirt in this one. The price is so-so as it is one of the 6 wines.
I'm not sure of the price on this as it is one of the 6 wines. It looks Bold, and I love wines from Napa usually, so I'm going to give it a try.
