May 16, 2009 - Eh, it's not the Okanagan. Aromas are there, but it's a little flat and alcohol-y on the palate. Much better after a 2h decant in the glass. Didn't drink as well on day 2.

September 30, 2008 - Coffee, currant, toast, smoke and baked bread nose. Full and dry with good fruit concentration and grippy tannins. Long, dry, minerally finish.
4.5/5
