  November 30, 2013 - The Twelfth Annual Stonefields Dinner (Guelph, ON, Canada): Transparent in colour….garnet to a tawny edge.
  Still very much alive though it has undoubtedly faded from its peak. My hunch is that it would have been at its best 10-15 years ago as the tertiary notes were definitely taking over in this wine.
  The nose was dominated by a medicinal note, mint, backing spice and a dusty character.
  The palate showed some cherry fruit with notes of brown sugar, dried flowers and dried plums.
  The finish was medium+ and showed good complexity
  It is very difficult to score this…..what a treat to try such an historical wine and to see it still alive and kicking.
