  January 21, 2014 - Pleasant food friendly wine.Tannins softened with bottle age and hint at complexity speaks to its Bordeaux heritage. Good VFM for CAD$20.

  September 16, 2013 - Last bottle. Enjoyable progress over the past few years but agree with others - it's getting to the drink up stage.

  October 4, 2011 - Excellent, but not outstanding. Quite a smoky/peaty note on the nose. Lots of up front fruit and earth. Fresh and tasty, but won't last more than a few years. Drink now.
