One of 71 items (57% of 124 releases) not presented for evaluation under new LCBO policies. Any item not tasted is assigned an interim ZERO-STAR (-) rating and an interim 0-POINT proxy score until properly assessed. The 2011 last appeared in Vintages (*) on May 14, 2016 at $32.95. Here is my previous note: Deep intense purple colour. Spicy, very cedary, mocha-chocolate nose with lots of stewed fruit. Somewhat sweetish, medium to medium-full bodied, spicy, mature, stewed plum-cherry flavours with a somewhat volatile, salty-sappy-cedary finish. This blend of 58% Malbec,18% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petit Verdot, 8% Syrah and 4% Merlot and Petit Verdot has lot number L-2011-1 on the back label. Tasted once.
