Last month I received these 4 bottles of wine to review.  I am not a wine guru or anything but since 2012 my husband and I started drinking wine so I was so happy to review these three wines.

In February's box  we received:


Pasion de Bobal Rose





Varietal: Bobal

Region: Utiel-Requena, Valencia
Country: Spain
Vintage: 2012
Alcohol: 12.5%
Bottle size: 750 mL

Chateau Haut Mousseau


Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot
Region: CĂ´tes de Bourg, Bordeaux
Country: France
Vintage: 2009
Alcohol: 12.5%
Bottle size: 750 mL

Mauricio Lorca Fantasia
Varieties: Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Alcohol: 12.5%
Bottle size: 750 mL

Domaine du Salvard "Unique
Varietal: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Loire Valley
Country: France
Vintage: 2012
Alcohol: 12.0%
Bottle size: 750 mL

I really liked all of these wines but I wasn't a bit fan of Mauricio Lorca Fantasia because I find it too dry but my husband liked it a lot. My favourite is the Pasion de Bobal Rose because it was fruity and not dry at all.
What I love about WineCollective is that you choose which package you want and they  have five different tiers to choose from, ranging in price and variety. And you can purchase gift packages so if you want to send it to a friend as a gift or you don't want to get this monthly you can choose this option. Package prices include shipping but additional charges may apply to rural areas and may vary by location.
All in all I am very impressed with my wines and the price is decent. The box that I got was the Evolution package (2 red wines and 2 white wines) which is $106.24 . This price includes shipping and taxes in Ontario. 

 I love the fact that I got to try different wines that I never even heard of before. I think I will be purchasing a package from them again in the future. 
Oh I forgot to mention that WineCollective is a Canadian company
I highly recommend WineCollective.ca
