Tasted at LCBO. Exceptionally floral nose plus red fruit, smooth finish. Light tannin so drink now. Tried at home - missing the floral nose but nice chocolaty undertones with medium weight. By next day licorice and currant came through, and floral nose started to show. Fantastic value. Buying more.

Pretty good. Too bad I don't remember where I got it. A little better on its own than with the food we paired with it (chopped salad, spicy pizza). 2011 vintage.

Much too much oak for my taste either on the nose or on the palate. It came just after a ripe chateauneuf du pape which hasn't helped I guess
