Description
TASTING NOTE: ... it's a blend of merlot, cabernet franc and cabernet sauvignon that saw 24 months in French oak and an additional 24 months developing in bottle. It's a powerhouse of rich fruit, yet it's layered with complexity and woven together with balance. A core of creamy cassis and chocolate mingles with cedar, tobacco, leather, vanilla and spice. It should cellar well for a decade or more and would pair handsomely now with juicy beef. Score: 93 (Beppi Crosariol, The Globe and Mail, July 4, 2012)

Tasting Notes
This full bodied wine has notes of spiced plums, tobacco and black cherries. The wine has warm baking spices, chocolate and coffee on the palate. A full bodied wine with well integrated tannins. Best in Show. Score - 93. (London Wine Competition, 2021)
