Disapponting short finish, and plain nose/palate, probably vintage related. 2013 vintage.

2013 vintage - tasted from magnum - very light style of wine with peppery Syrah predominating - definitely a drink now wine but enjoyable none the less

Red & black fruit on the nose. Syrah definitely dominant with a very spicy, complex finish. The cork was extremely soft & the label has Braille on it which is super cool. Delicious young wine.

Jammy and earthy. No need to pair with food. This bottle drinks well alone.

Cranberry juice red and light viscosity. Ripe cherries, leather, and earthy mineral notes on the nose. Gentle spice and pepper on the palate with slight mineral linger. Medium minus tannins, balanced acidity, and medium minus length finish.
Great value Rhone red at ~$16Cad, classic old world style and flavour, works better with food.

Dark chocolate, Blackberry, black licorice, plumb and tar. Short finish with a smooth mouth feel. Would be great with smoked pork or BBQ ribs.
