VINTAGES ONLINE EXCLUSIVE - Ordered on morning March 17 but only shipped by the LCBO on March 23 and finally delivered March 28. Bright medium garnet red colour, the faintly spicy, bright, fresh, ripe, red cherry-tinged, Damson plum nose has some, gently complex, sandalwood notes. Dry, medium-plus bodied, gently spicy, very bright, surprisingly fresh, ripe plum flavours with a lingering, gentle cedar-sandalwood finish with some elegant hints of violets.

TASTING NOTE: Red-berry and cherry aromas here with a light musky note, following through to a silky, medium bodied palate with fine, spice and mineral-coated tannins and a tight, tasty finish. Really compact and focused. Give this a year or two to open up. Drink from 2023 [and follow through 2030]. Score - 93 (jamessuckling.com, June 2, 2021) |
