This wine is still going strong. There’s plenty of fruit and acid and the palate is lively and exciting. Honestly I think there might be 5+ years in the cellar for this wine. One more bottle and I’ll hope until 2026 at least. Still can’t go wrong.

September 1, 2023. Drank from bin 9 north. Father’s Day gift from Cory June 17, 2018. Had with Aline and Cory at dinner. 60% CS, 25% Malbec and 15% Cabernet Franc. Full blackberry, cherry and oak nose. Very dark purple. Full body oak, currant and still plenty of tannins. Could lay down for many more years. 9/10.

Medium to Full Bodied with hot tannic taste and not well balanced. Malbec and Cab Franc seem to overpower the cab. I wonder if more age with calm down the tannins and secondary fruit so that the cabernet can make an appearance

Beautiful high note perfume with Eucalyptus and spice notes. Flavor of Dark Cherry/Plum. Full body and ready to enjoy with that big steak! Wish i had another bottle

This 2013 still has years left in it. Great wine for the money.
