June 2, 2023 - A wonderful wine from one of the premier BC winemakers. Received this library bottle (2009, and it’s now 2023) as part of the wine club. I’m afraid of aging wines on my own since I’ve had a number go beyond “ready” to “vinegar”.
But, Osoyoos Larose has done the aging for me! And thank goodness for that.
This wine is full bodied, with medium tannins. Oak. Black pepper. Very ripe red fruit. Absolutely delicious and everything a Bordeaux-style blend should be.
Rivals any old world name brand, no problem.1 person found this helpful Comment -

June 26, 2021 - De mémoire. Cassis, menthol, poivron, un peu de cuir, torréfaction. Tannins présents sans être agressifs. Corps moyen, équilibré. Prêt à boire, très bien !

June 3, 2021 - It’s been a few years since I drank this last and it is holding up well.
Just poured a single glass via Coravin to enjoy with takeout morel mushroom specials from Allegra tonight.
Fortunately it is a pretty big glass as I am still enjoying this after the dinner is done. Some say I eat too fast.
I say that I drink too slow.
Very soft tannins on this mature wine and the fruit and acidity are in good balance that makes a nice pairing with this meal.2 people found this helpful Comment
