I would just be disappointed if I were in J and only had a choice of Canadian wines. Don't get me wrong, I'd still drink it.. but I would be disappointed.

Just out of curiosity, have you ever tried a blind tasting comparing similarly priced Canadian wine with wine from other countries? For example, ever tried a blind tasting with mid-priced bordeaux ($40 to $80) compared to Canadian bordeaux-style blends from either Niagara or Okanagan? Or a similar blind tasting with good pinot with moderately priced burgundy?

Not to be too much of a wine snob, but it may change your perspective.

I would host if anyone makes it to the wilds of New Brunswick!
