LCBO. Needs to breath before drinking. First glass was a bit sharp...but second glass was much smoother. Drier than wines we normally drink.

Enjoyed 2012 vintage in Dec 2016. Darker than what I had expected: nice notes of berries and oak. Love the tannins.

2001- mature with plenty of fruit to go longer. Concentrated red fruit, full bodied enough that it went after a Napa cab blend(Equilibrium).

With one of my oldest friends, Chris D... Just like the back table at Xavier... This time it's the upper east side.... Really good Frescobaldi, the prosutio, the meal, his lovely wife joins us... We are both where we said we would be when we were 15 year old kids... Awesome time. He is one of my favorite people... Great catching up.
