Complex primary and seconday nose and taste: Leather, raisins, plums, black cherry, toasted oak with just the right amount of tannin. The alcohol is there but it is not hot, it takes a back seat to the primary notes. This is a big bordeaux style wine, big and chewy and oh so good! Pair with a nice roats beef meal to fully enjoy. Available at the winery and at selected LCBO Vintage locations. BUY this one, it is the good stuff!! This is one complex wine that is deserving of all of the awards it has won.
