90 Points

Monday, July 11, 2016 - WineFest in Toronto (Mike Grammer); 7/10/2016-7/12/2016 (Mike Grammer's (parents home) in Toronto): I was told by a few people this wasn't any good. After tasting it, I get why they said that, but it was a matter of taste and that it was with some bigger younger cabs. Like a Spottswoode from 94 I had a few weeks back, this is also drinking like a well aged but still in the peak years, Bordeaux. The nose is tobacco, cassis, slight bell pepper and dust. On the palate, the fruit is fading but still there, some cassis, dried cherries, with leather and some damp forest floor. Good balance. This would certainly show better on its own, but still has plenty to offer the person interested in listening to what it has to say.
