Wow! Pop and pour deliciousness. Opened this up while cooking. Big mistake. Became so enamored by the wine I forgot what I was doing with the food. (The 15.9 abv didn't help either 😱). This is so good. Huge fruit on the nose and palate. Black cherries, vanilla, brown sugar. Sweet tannins and silly smooth. While not quite as full bodied or with same viscosity as their other wines - this is still amazing. I'm going all in on the Beau Vigne train. @Martin G Rivard what can I say? As HFIC you know what's good! And this is great! — 9 years ago

Awesome.

Smooth at the perimeter, finishes like a goddamn freight train.

1985. Tasting this was like sitting next to a WWII vet on a train...some respect for an old school gentleman...they don't make wines like this any more: herbal, pencil shavings, cigar, tea, lots of acid, grainy tannins, light body, refreshing...let's bring cab like this back! — 10 years ago
