94 Points

Monday, August 13, 2012 - Dinner at Doyle & Lesley's (Vancouver, BC): Light to medium garnet colour with some bricking at the rim. Served in massive Baccarat red Burg glasses. Beautiful aromas of spice, violets, dark red fruits, barnyard and earth jumped from the glass with such a delicate yet generous profile. The generosity continued on the palate with rich and masculine red and black fruit flavours, along with spicy and earth tones too. The mouthfeel is silky and the fine tannins and moderate acidity are perfectly balanced. More spice and earthy flavours appear on the lengthy finish. What amazed me about this wine was the richness and generosity of the fruit while being so silky and delicate at the same time. This was singing the entire evening and never stopped or faded one bit. In a superb place right now. Outstanding.
