  nose is alluring and playful while the palate pulls off the trifecta of full fruited with dark cherry leading the way, mid-palate adds in the tobacco and mocha for texture and the finish is long and demands you go back for more

  Some precipitate in bottle. Seemed it was very tannic, very dry leathery aftertaste. Felt like it had gone bad... disappointed.

  Robe bourgogne, arome de petit fruit noir, cerise noire, boisé, fumé. Vin rond avec une bonne amertume. Par contre un peu court en bouche.

  Admirable effort for a Canadian red Bordeaux style. In fact I think it could have benefitted from another 5 years at LEAST. Super firm structure. For 22$ it's hard to find such a cellaring wine. Bravo Hildebrand, Ontario red wines have now.. nothing to be shy about. I will definitely repurchase.

  Moving on to the 2010, this wine is still a relative baby, still holding onto some of that baby fat in the form of spice and fruit heft. The nose is blackberry, cassis, strawberry, cinnamon and spice ... the palate shows some cedar notes along with cinnamon and spice. There's plenty of dark fruit with hints of red starting to emerge, it also has quite the long finish that proves to be on the spicy/peppery side. My brother likes his wines a little bigger, brasher and bolder and so this is the one he latched onto.
