Nothing special to begin with but it grew on me with a bit of aeration. Still young and shy, not giving up a whole lot on the nose but a hint of chocolate and dark fruit, maybe a little sea air at a stretch. The palate is mid weight, plums, black cherry, blue fruit into strawberry, all very varietally true. But overpriced at $59 - blame the LCBO, for what I’m sure you pay for this in the States, it’s probably decent value.
