  Decanted for 2.5 hours. Aromas of dark chocolate, currant, blackberry, black cherry and lead pencil. Flavors of cherry, blackberry, currant, mocha and fruitcake. Has a good amount of tannin on it. Ends with a long finish of 40-45 seconds with blackberry and black cherry notes. Agree with the Schrader comments. Quite amazing as it is half the price. I need to seek out more of these and also try the Cab Franc.

  Wife not feeling this one quite as much as she is picking up more pyrazines. I like the depth and concentration of fruit. No rough edges.

  Oakville AVA tasting (67 Pall Mall): A subtle cedar note, rose petal, mint. Quite contained with a balance of red and dark fruit. Not a blockbuster on the palate - there's some sweetness and a medium to full body: the palate is actually a little dilute based upon the assertiveness of the nose, but actually that's no bad thing: certainly drinkable. A slight tinny note on a good length finish - but generally this is a slightly dialled back rendition and all the better for it, allowing for some delineation and complexity.

  this wine was exceptionally good at the price point. Reminds me a little of Tor and Schrader from To Kalon.
  
  Black fruit, cassis, chocolate, cedar, tobacco, black currant, well balanced finishers with smokey oak. A+ (97)
