This is in it’s prime drinking window now. Beautifully balanced. The tannins have rounded out. I agree with Vino Loco TN but give this an extra point. It’s a delight to consume at this time. Only complaint is a tad thin fruit wise on the finish. But wonderful with grilled striploin.

Buy this wine before I get it all. Luscious nose of black current, bramble and coffee on the nose. Same on the palate. So rich and full but not cloying at all, wonderful drying tannins. Just enough acidity. This wine has everything I love and at a super price. After tasting this wine, if someone can recommend a wine with a better qpr please respond. For me this hits all the notes. Simply delicious. Took my last sip while writing this note...with regret.

Similar to previous TN. Ten months later, a touch more depth and richness. Terrific QPR.

    4/9/21, 7:02 AM - Hey Canoehead, I have never tried any Van Western wines. Can't find the '16 have you tried the '17? How about the '17 V?

    Really want to thank you for all your great TNs. They are most helpful I should reciprocate but I find it difficult to break down why I like a wine and distinguishing flavours and it usually cums down to yuk or yum (Tom Robbins reference). I did write one about the '16 Sunrock red Meritage.

    Please keep up the good work
