Reviews

Natalie McLean, 2017 - 94 Points: "A gorgeously aromatic Cabernet with deep colour and a mind-blowing velvety texture on the palate. There is also small amounts of Merlot, Shiraz and Malbec grapes in the blend. Rich, supple and full-bodied with aromas of dark fruit and smoke. Pair with duck or game meats. Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: roast beef, rare steak, grilled meats, game."

www.ottawawinejournal.com - 93 Points: "Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review: All mint, muscle and strength. Gorgeous black and blue fruit with lifted notes of Worcestershire sauce and candied flowers."

Janes Staples Certified Sommelier - 93 Points: "Aromatic ripe red berries, with a luxurious palate that unfolds in layers of ripe fruit, savoury herbs and mint. Well-balanced with good acidity. Would be wonderful with your next prime rib. Great gift wine for a Cab lover."
