JUNO – South Africa Shiraz
Juno Shiraz from South Africa
“The mythical goddess Juno celebrated and jealously guarded the passion and strength of women. The spirit and skill of our four women winemakers is captured in every bottle of Juno wine, with alluring complexity and expressive style.” this is an excerpt written on the bottle
I could sit by myself in a room just smelling this wine and have a great night. Which I pretty much did. I enjoyed making my way through the initial layers of black cherry and black currant before discovering the spicy, peppery secondary aromas. Eventually I got around to tasting the wine, which was a continuing adventure of the flavours the aromas suggested. The wine is rich with black fruit flavours, oak and spice.
At 14% alcohol it’s a full-bodied, high alcohol wine with pretty high tannins and medium acidity. Tannins produce that dry mouth feeling you get that makes your tongue automatically slide up over your teeth. Acidity is the mouthwatering characteristic that you feel at the back of your mouth along your gums. When tannins, acidity and alcohol really find their sweet spot with the fruit flavours, you end up with a work of art, where every glass you pour tells a story.
I admit I’m a fan of Shiraz, and Juno doesn’t disappoint. Producing wine is like creating art, telling a story or writing a song. Everything from climate, to the style of irrigation, the type of soil and the way the grapes are grown in the vineyard influences a wine. The winemakers at Juno actually share this information on their website. It’s pretty interesting, and I encourage you to check it out.
Juno Wines
The winemakers tell us the grapes were picked fully ripe. The physical and chemical components of the grape influence a wine’s quality, so determining the optimal moment of ripeness is crucial. They tell us the wine was fermented for 10 days using selected Rhone yeasts. This is another decision made to best express the varietal characteristics and retain colour and intensity of fruit flavours. Malolactic fermentation was used. MLF is a process that converts tart malic acids (found in apples) into smoother lactic acids (found in milk) and generally smooths out some of the rough edges. Finally they tell us that the wine was aged in oak barrels for 14 months, which adds additional maturity and complexity.
“Passionate and beautiful, powerful and seductive, Juno is the goddess in every woman. She gives the gift of life and celebrates the rich blessings of Mother Earth. She is the artist breaking free from conformity and standing for all that is true and pure.” an excerpt from the website
FOOD PAIRING
Juno is a spicy shiraz and will pair well with spicy, intense, highly-flavored dishes that might overpower other soft-centered red wines. Grilled hickory-smoked steak or beef served in a reduction sauce, honey and spice glazed chicken, lamb with a chocolate-chili sauce or baked dishes incorporating beef, beans and lentils. This is a really enjoyable shiraz easy to drink with food or without.
B.C. wine prices are some of the highest in Canada, and I found this on sale for $13.00. It’s an excellent value for an inexpensive wine. These winemakers succeeded in making their story come alive.
Wine Trivia to Get Your Geek On - Shiraz is also known as Syrah. Someone who’d probably watched too many crime shows on TV ran some DNA testing and discovered Syrah is the offspring of Dureza and Mondeuse Blanche…a couple of super obscure grapes from France that almost no one has ever heard of. (except for a guy name Pierre…but he’s not talking) Feel free to pull this useless piece of trivia out the next time you’re at a party and a pompous palette is blathering on about the nuanced aromatics of ‘wet forest floor’ and ‘pencil shaving compost’ composition in the wine, and how it makes the perfect pairing for ‘roast muscovy duck with late-harvest Himalayan mint jelly.’

Living Through Christmas Hell
The Real Story
“We’re ready to go on the record to expose the rusted under-carriage of Christmas.”
That was how a group of strangers started their strange tale. I’d received a cryptic text earlier in the day telling me it was time to take off my snow-frosted lenses, along with some directions to a secret rendezvous. That was how I ended up under an overpass just after midnight huddled in the freezing cold.

The Sommelier Side of Life
People ask me what I love about wine…honestly the answer is, EVERYTHING!
I love the complexity, the flavours and aromas. I’m fascinated by the process and the incredible range of possibilities that can and do, change everything from year to year. I find wine a great metaphor for everything from love to life to crafting a great story.
After a lifelong appreciation of wine I finally invested in my education and training to officially become a sommelier. There is a story behind every bottle and as a purveyor of great stories, I’m eager to experience as many as I can, and share the adventure with you.

Tempranillo, Spain & Hemingway
Tempranillo Gran Reserva
If you’re open to trying an ‘Old World’ wine, check out Anciano, Gran Reserva. I just tried a 2005 and a 2003.
The wine is made from Tempranillo, which is a black grape variety that has been called Spain’s noble grape. It makes full-bodied red wines that often have plum and strawberry flavours.
Tempranillo isn’t as aromatic as varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, but both of these vintages have spent extended time ageing in oak barrels, which allows the wine to take on some unique characteristics and flavours from the oak.
When a wine is meant for ageing, it means that things like the composition of the grapes and tannins are such that the flavours will get more interesting with age. It’s actually hard to say they get ‘better’ with age, because not everyone will necessarily appreciate or enjoy what happens. Fruit flavours often begin to mellow as the wine starts to develop secondary and tertiary flavours. This is where sommeliers can sound a bit crazy throwing around descriptors like, wet forest floor, compost, leather, cigar box and petrol. But when you come across a developed wine that shows some of these characteristics, it’s fascinating and exciting.
Navigating Old World wine labels can be a bit of a clustermug for many New World wine consumers. In this case, Anciano refers to the winery. Under Spain’s wine laws, a wine has to be aged for a minimum of 60 months, 18 of those in oak barrels to be labeled a Grand Reserva. But not everyone buying the wine is from Spain and knows the law, so this winery has decided to SPELL. IT. OUT. FOR. YOU.
Tempranillo Gran Reserva
Tempranillo describes the grape used, (which just as an interesting side note you can use to blow your dinner guests minds… is known as Tinto Roriz in Portugal, which is one of five different grapes blended to produce Port)
Valdepenas refers to the wine region in Spain where the grapes were grown. It’s an area known for producing high quality Tempranillo at inexpensive prices. Oh yeah, and Hemingway apparently drank a holy ton of it. So heads up to all you aspiring, but starving-artist writers out there. It worked for Ernest…might work for you too.
I found both wines in the Spain section at the local BCLC. Both were on sale for under $15.00 and offer excellent value in the ‘inexpensive’ price category.
