Très bien, typé Bordeaux RG avec du cassis frais et des mûres légèrement cuites, vanille et une bonne touche de fumé. Tanins présents mais bien intégrés après qq heures de carafe.

Clear, blackened mauve with red rim, very sporadic thin and slow-moving tears. Clean, med- intensity, aromas of blackberries, cassis, earthiness, Hawthorne, and cooked mulberries. Dry, med body, med- acidity, med but soft tannins, med alcohol, with further tastes of ripe blueberries, roast beef juice, dark espresso, bitter chocolate. A nice finish and surprisingly Bordeaux-like for a BC wine. Really enjoyed this with steaks. For the money, this is a first-growth equivalent.

Wish I had bought more. Good now, was not very good when I initially bought it. C’est la vie!
