Awesome. Beautiful classic Bordeaux nose of cassis and forest floor. Blackberry blueberry fruit with soft tannins and muted acidity all perfectly balanced with a lengthy finish. Superb!!

Deep garnet shade. Initial impression of chocolate and vanilla. Ripe, spicy, dark cherries and as it opened up, plenty of length, soft tannins. Years to go. Should continue to develop complexity, but very good now.

Still too early to open. Acid, tannin and alcohol all fighting for dominance. Subdued the fruit a bit. Absolutely spot on with prime rib. Lots of potential if patience bears out.

Like sipping wine while sitting in a plum tree! Also some cassis on the nose, and some earthiness. Full mouth feel, well balanced, long and pleasant finish. Still some tannins but they are quite mature and it's drinking well now. I would have guessed this to be an old-world wine, not from this tiny and almost unknown Canadian wine region. It went wonderfully with grilled steak and "all the fixin's".

Drinking well now. Terrible cold makes any tasting notes suspect but i very much like this. Hope it doesn't only taste good when I have a cold.
