March 3, 2023 - Cranberry and dark cherry on the open. Back end has notes of oak, perfumed spice, and earth. Mid-weight red. Really great acidity. Tannins are still young, but not overpowering. Probably better in 5-10 years. Very interesting wine. 13.5% ABV. 100% Cinsault.

December 23, 2020 - Very pure wine. Light but rich, whatever that means... For food pairing, think of what would be good with old world pinot noir, Beaujolais or blaufrankish. Excellent with a traditional canadian Chritmas meal.
The price is too high IMHO. -

July 22, 2020 - This took a while to open up to show the beautiful notes of dark red currants, spices, slightly dried red florals and perfume on the nose, similar palate, with a more high toned feel, lots of acidity, medium tannins medium plus finish
