|
This is one of 43 items out of 92 releases not presented for evaluation under new LCBO policies. This REPEAT of the recommended 2015 (**/**+) was released on February 2, 2019 at $17.95. Here is my previous note: Deep red colour. Slightly spicy, ripe plum nose with some faint herbal notes. Dry, medium bodied, earthy, tangy, herbal, slightly dusty plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, crisp finish. This blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L2018/10/12 on the capsule. |

TASTING NOTE: Aromas of black currants and fresh green tea follow through to a medium to full body and firm and chewy tannins that are polished and poised. Needs one or two years to soften. Drink in 2020. Score - 91 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, Feb. 2, 2018) |
