Extremely deep intense purple colour. Slightly spicy, ripe plum-cherry puree nose with some mineral-tinged, cedary notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, well structured, slightly spicy, fairly ripe plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, spicy, cedary, fairly high acid finish. This blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet has 14% alcohol and now 3 g/L residual sugar (down from 6 g/L) . A REPEAT of the recommended best buy 2010 (**+) last released on August 6, 2016 at $19.95 with lot number L1001 on the back label. TONY ASPLER / 89-points / BEST BUY - Cedary, black currant with oak notes on the nose; medium-bodied, dry, savoury black currant flavour; firmly structured. |

TASTING NOTE: A rich and beautiful Bordeaux with lots of black currants, blueberries and vanilla character. Full body, round and soft tannins and a flavorful finish. Fruit-forward style. Delicious now but better in 2017. Serious wine from this appellation. About 80% merlot and the rest cabernets. Score - 91 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, Oct. 21,2016) |
