November 17, 2023 - From 0,375. Bottled in 2001. Medium ruby color. Aromas of dark cherry, dried cherry, plums, prunes, leather, tobacco. Taste of sweet cherry, raisins, dark chocolate. Short finish.

November 30, 2021 - Encore une fois...méchant dépot dans le fond et sur les parois.
Debout pendant une semaine, soigneusement décanté
et filtrer pour enlever la sludge et les dépots en peau!
Assez fin et léger. Surtout de la prune et
une légère touche de menthol. Amertume en finale.
Sur sa pente descendante.
Moins bien que la précédente...pour 25$, c'est correct! -

May 1, 2021 - C`est fin et pas trop sucré.
Une tonne de dépot et de sludge au fond!
J`ai soignueusement décanté et été obligé
de filtrer par après pour enlever les sédiments fins!
Prunes et dattes, tabac et caramel.
Tannins tout intégrés et finale courte.
Il n`ira pas plus moins mais restera comme ça
selon moi.
Mieux que mes autres mais rien de transcendant!
....ça vaut le 25$ investi! -

September 25, 2020 - Ruby, little to no color drop. Light Sandalwood / spice. Lush, plum, fine tannins. Youthful
