With over 335 wines to taste and a room the size of a football field to taste them in this seemed a daunting task. Profile represents wines from around the world, places such as Argentina, Australia, France, Chile, Italy, New Zealand, Spain and the United States which all make up the Profile Wine Group portfolio; the big question here was, where do I begin? While it would have been nice to try all the wines I decided to focus on a couple of regions we rarely see on the shelves of the LCBO: Washington and Oregon: Amity and Cristom Vineyards (Oregon), Columbia Crest, Gordon Bros., L’ecole #41, and Ste. Michelle Wines (Washington). I tried most if not all the wines at their tables and bring you my thoughts on the best of the bunch. (to read my picks of the Washington State and Oregon State wines that impressed, you know what to do)
