A recommendation from the LCBO in Toronto. Probably should have been drunk some years ago, but the wine has held up well. Dark red in the glass with some nice "legs" Cherry / berry on the nose. Nice and spicy, albeit a little muted on the palate, and a long smooth finish.
Well priced at the time. Would buy more on our next visit.

The nose seems a little muted but the palate proved to be anything but, with its spicy red fruit and pepper notes, there's also a fun, kinda creamy, sensation mid-palate.

Wow, big wine! Very powerful nose of black cherry and blueberry. Pepper, cedar and plummy on the palate, with a very long long finish! Wish ?I had more, as I think there are a few more years left in this wine.

Nose was rather closed. Aromas of black fruit predominated with a slight back end. In the mouth, the wine seemed closed off, too.
