At a very good spot right now. Dark purple in colour. Notes of cedar, black currant, and eucalyptus. A great example of a well made BC Cab. Not a crazy fruit bomb, but an elegant classic bottle of wine, that will drink well for at least another 5 years.

Ten Years On - 2012 Cabernet Sauvignons (Canoehead Central): The only BC Cab in the mix of eight double-decanted blind tasting of 2012 Cabernets. Dark Purple. Rich pronounced nose. Dutch, salty licorice. Tart plum and crunchy black cherry on the palate. Out of balance. Acidic, bitter and a very short finish. Not that iconic. Seventh out of Eight.

Out of balance. Components there but all struggling against each other.
