Tasting note:

I dare you not to drink after you smell this wine. Rich and dark with black cherry liqueur. This is so seductive… I felt a little helpless and had to resist something powerful not to swallow since I had another 87 wines to taste. I’d serve this one at a dinner party and sit back and listen to the conversation become a lot more voluble.

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 91/100 with the following review:

Brambly blueberry, black plum, smoke and milk chocolate. Black raspberry present when first opened but dissipated into the rest of the berry fruit. Light black pepper edge. I'm 91 on this wine. (ottawawinejournal.com)
