Tasting note:

This wine doesn’t stop: it’ll conquer all your senses. Resist to make the pleasure last longer, but it will win you over. Long lines of dark fruit, savoury juiciness and smoke rush into touch your tastebuds and pleasure center. So mouth-filling, satin smooth and satisfying. One word: more.

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 94/100 with the following review:

There still might be some of this kicking around your local Vintages section. I'm glad this wine had some time to simmer down. Loaded with blackberry and stewed blueberry fruit. Some unexpected high tones and acid bring this wine together beautifully. Could age even longer. Lovely now. I'm 94 points on this wine. (ottawawinejournal.com)
