LCBO Note Status A Vintage Assessments Explorer's Selection!
Tasting note: Highly Recommended. Smells of wet cement or damp stones in the initial minutes before the aromas shift gears, offering toasty, ash-like, smoky scents of tobacco leaf, roasted cereals, pencil eraser and vegetable oil. Palate entry shows an oily texture and tastes of charcoal and mildly sweet grain; midpalate displays well-structured flavors of lead pencil, off-dry grain and licorice. Finishes full in the mouth, acceptably fiery and off-dry. Score – 90-95. (Wine Enthusiast, April 2003) Price $ 39.95
