Really liked it. I‘d say clearly new world, perhaps a tad too much new oak/vanilla for my taste on the whole. But on this evening with a roast it was absolutely delicious. And it really is at most a tad too much, if at all, so this is just splitting hairs. Very well made, BC wines rock.

Gifted this to a friend 18 months ago who shared it back with us on Friday night. Out of four wines and four tasters, it scored 3rd of 4th place with all (Me: 4th.) There was no obvious technical flaw, but it was just kind of vacant on the midpalate and didn't provide much of a finish. It had been prepped right, so no fault there. Six years out it should have been singing, and it couldn't sing at all.

Still very good. Strong notes of thyme. I think this is at or slightly past its prime, so probably best to drink by end of 2023.
