Crush Wine Bar

We had a very nice meal at the Crush Wine Bar last week.

What I like best about the wine program is that the list is quite broad covering old and new world but not so huge that you need 45 minutes to find the right bottle. The prices appear to be double the LCBO/retail pricing.

Any list that includes Ridge Geyserville, Novy Syrah, Meerlust Rubicon and a healthy number of Languedoc and Rhones will win me over any day. Here's the full list in PDF format if you care…

We decided on the 2004 Chave St. Joseph but in hindsight, this wine really needs several years before it should be consumed. I found it very tight and unforgiving but by the end of the meal, it started to open up a little and show more promise.
