Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Black plum, cherry, cedar smoke and old wood. A touch of roasted herb and green coffee come through on both the nose and finish. 90-92, still actually has some years left in it, but I would consume now for optimum fruit. (ottawawinejournal.com)
Christopher Matey reviewed this wine as follows:

Had it at Morton's where it was marked up to $80! Good thing I wasn't paying. Excellent wine though, especially if I can get it for $20 at the LCBO.
