I was going to write a long in depth review with overt references to Demolition Man but... Changed my mind, I mean Sly Stallone, Wesley Snipes, Sandra Bullock, Bob Gunton, Dennis Leary... It gives me so much leeway to play.
It's too obvious...
Instead, I'll say that this is a MASSIVE red, great for bloody steaks and rich foods... But... It is overpriced in Canada. I wouldn't buy it again as I can get something nearly as good for $10 less. Price affects rating for this one.

It’s good. Would have liked it to have a lil more kick. However my GF thinks it’s too heavy...

On the nose black cherry. Initial sip spicey dark berries. Cherry blackberry. After the swallow hints of mocha and as it fades the taste lightens to more of a raspberry note

One of my all time favorite wines! Dark smokey flavor that explodes in your mouth. The name definitely fits the wine. Can't get enough of it! If there was a 15, that's what I would rate this wine.
