I haven't tried any Canadian reds. The only reds that I usually drink outside of those from Europe are those from US and AUS. If I had to drink wines from Canada, I'll stick to the Ice Wines thank you =P

I think the most expensive Ice Wines are still from Germany though =D

Well it doesn't really matter where it comes from because the quality of the wine has something to do with how old it is. So if you have like a 1860 bottle of Wine, it would probably be worth a lot now-a-days.

just because a wine is older doesnt mean it will be worth more or taste better, wines have a peak age and not all wines age well. I personally dont like alcohol, i hate seeing people losing control of themselves. especially if theyre the type who get drunk and start feeling sorry for themselves. but i must admit it can be hilarious, like when one of my classmates tried to climb up a plain wall. he was hugging it and keep slapping at it every once in a while. im not sure if he was just drunk.

yeah i do so too feel sorry for people who had alcohol almost control their lives,and even some people drinks at least a bottle a day and a pack of cigarettes..does wine really taste better if it is aged longer?any scientific reason for it?

i think we already went through this
but basically
there a time that the wines theoretically reach their maturity age (the best time to drink them)
so if they are TOO old, in addition to the cork that may have been damaged (we had to filter out the cork in the older wines sometimes), the taste may have changed a lot and passed their prime
like i said before; old doesn't mean = good. old doesn't mean =expensive, though many of the times it is in fact the case

Wine also has its special conditions that you need to keep them in. You have to have them set at a specific temperature in cellars (where its important to keep wine) and you must keep the wine in wooden barrels for a particular reason.
Why?
---The use of wine barrels (especially oak barrels) to store and age wine is a centuries old tradition (and solution). Wine aged in oak barrels is enhanced with the addition of vanilla and oak overtones. Wooden Wine Barrels also allow for a small amount of evaporation of the contents during the aging period.
