Community Tasting Note

87 Points

Thursday, March 28, 2013 - Interesting reviews over the years. This is pricey in my neck of the woods - 28$ CAN. Pretty old at this point, been sitting on my shelf for a long time.

Nose is creamy oaky vanilla...with some tobacco/leather qualities...palate rings out the same essentially. Very light tannin such that overall experience is smooth and again, approaching a creamy texture. Fruit is overpowered by that darker, earthy note from oak...If you like a heavier wine that is distinct with the 7 yr old oak, you would like this. A little to much for me. I would not suggest holding for longer, although will last likely till 2015...just don't think will improve.

Let this open for 30 to 60 mins and serve after being in fridge for like 30 mins...
