  I don’t understand why interested wine drinkers even bother to put in a numerical score—AND NOTHING ELSE. This wine was more than a pleasant surprise—it is the epitome of what ‘claret’ is all about. Refreshing, digestible, mouth-watering and palate-cleansing, it’s balanced and flavorful. With cedar underpinning, it’s fresh and elegance incarnate. From an I touted vintage, it shows beautifully @ 7 years of age. If your preference is to drink wine WITH FOOD this is a lovely choice.

  Nose is chalky with a bit of mushroom. Flavour is peppery at first, followed with a bit of chalk or metal that leaves the tongue underwhelmed while tannins remain. Weak in the finish. I didn’t have time to decant, so maybe it will open up a bit.

  Simple quaff with little to no sense of place or varietal character. Unmemorable.
