- Garnet color and aromas of black currant, fig and black pepper. It's balanced and has flavours of black pepper, cherry, black currant and fig with a full body. Leathery texture with a long finish - Decanted 90 minutes. Heavy alcohol nose at first, let is breathe. Big, bold and spicy tannins. This wine can age even longer. 3-5 years.

Purple color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of roasted meat, currants, plums and white pepper. Flavors of boysenberries, raspberries and plums. Medium acidity, firm tannin, full bodied. Drink with air or hold.

Simply stunning for the price...reduced at CA$36 LCBO back in May 2020. Arômes de fruits noirs et rouges...cerise noir, et floraux, sous-bois, cendre, ainsi que des notes animales...grillées...complexe...très beau ! Merveilleux en bouche : souple, crémeux, fruité, floral, chaud, soupçon salin. Rond, ample et fondu. Finale moyenne sur des notes d'épices salines. Boire sans tarder...délicieux ! 94+

Certainly good quality grapes here. This wine is made in a style that I don’t prefer. It was pretty sweet and extracted with a lot of oak. If you enjoy that style of wine, this is up your alley. This wine is ready to drink over the next 5 years. Not for me, but I wanted to give it a decent score since the quality was there.

Paul Hobbs tasting….
A little more savory than the 2019
Cassis, plums and figs. Tannins starting to shed a bit.
