Robe rouge bordeaux très dense. Nez expressif, fruit mûr, prune, cassis, noix de grenoble grillé. En bouche continuité sur les aromes percues. Tanins bien structurants, sans aspérités persistance moyenne à longue sur le fruit cuit et la noix de grenoble. Délicieux et excellent rapport Q-P surtout depuis que le vin est au catalogue de la SAQ. 20% moins dispendieux qu'en IP.

For the price, this is a very nice, drinkable wine. Very dark color, muted nose. Did not decant. Nice round flavors of ripe dark fruit, paired with a freshly smoked sockeye salmon filet. Wish I had purchased more.

Very pleasant, easy drinking wine. Mild aroma, bright light red color, wonderful sweet light fruit flavor (strawberry, floral & flower), with freshness. Decent length & structure. Great value wine.

Drank two bottles with neighbors along with a salami and cheese selection before dinner. Very nice drinker. Color was deep purple, very light nose of red berries, flavors of grape, red fruit. Not heavy, oaky or smoky...paired up well with drunken goat cheese and a sweet Irish cheddar. Not a long term keeper, did not decant.

To the nose, blackberry and black cherry with pepper plus alcohol. On the palate, black cherry, black raspberry, red cherry and cranberry for fruit. Pepper is white > black; very slight cinnamon or sage? Tannins in strings. Some leather which dissipates with longer decant. Medium mouthfeel and length for garnacha. Very similar to prior note - may have started drinking sooner and colder than before.

A hidden gem! To the nose, pepper, blackberry and black cherry with some vegetal (forest floor). Alcohol is notable (14.5%). On the palate, same fruit and spice with black raspberry plus slight plum and boysenberry - red raspberry joins in as fully warms. Pepper is white and black - boom. Good structure with thready tannins. Medium mouthfeel and med-long length. Increase red fruit (raspberry and slight red cherry) at end, increasing as warms. No chocolate or cola; no oak or smoke. Excellent QPR - will look for more.

This is a super wine for the price. Nose of violets, raspberries and grape. Rich, deep color. Easy to drink. Wish I had more in the cellar.

Not very complex. A tad jammy. Disappointed.

Pleasant aromas. Better on day two. Dark fruits and a bit of a short, rubbery finish.
