Found February 2013
This is a disappointing bottle of wine and for so many reasons. The year was one of the best Ontario had seen to date and the grapes would have been perfect for making a great bottle of Merlot - but there was just something very off and very funky about this bottle. The best thing I can say about it is that there is some (stress on the word some) fruit in here and it's sweet and dried ... but other than that look out. There is volatile acidity running rampant (that's a smell of nail polish remover) and it never seems to let up. The packaging on this wine is quite striking, with it's metal plate front label and silver back label, but that's the only thing that is striking about this bottle - except maybe the fact that it strikes out ... only 6 years old and the fruit has faded and every seems over oaked, oxidized and, well, not very good. I expected so much more from this bottle and it let me down. If you have some let me know your thoughts but my bottle just didn't stand up. Lost & Found Rating: Trash
