Château Des Charmes Old Vines Cabernet/Merlot 2012, VQA Niagara On The Lake
Ontario, Canada$17.75
2020
May 2020.....had with a gourmet mac 'n cheese (made by Lynne/Tom)...might have paired better with bbq.....can tell there was some quality with this wine but not being a huge Bordeaux fan and the fact that I thought there was a funk factor with this wine, didn't enjoy quite as much as I had hoped for. The funky aroma ruined it for me. Don't think i was drinking it late but who knows, maybe better a year prior? (88)

> 1st of 3, gift to Dawn Thanksgiving 2015 (she opened, was ok but not the right meal fit)
>drink summer 2017 & last one 2018/19
>December 2020, drank last one (might have given one away? or drank? cant remember) Quite enjoyed with Pizza. I suspect it had at least another year left in it. Still had what I would call a harsh flavour that didn't appeal to me much but still it was an inviting wine that suggested refinement, savouriness and give me another sip.(90)

Santa Carolina Reserva De Familia Cabernet Sauvignon 2012, Maipo Valley
Maipo Valley, Chile$19.95
drink 2016/17 (later better?), let breathe
Nov 2020....had with sirloin steak. Drinkable but not that enjoyable. Clearly past its prime. Hard to comment on how it might have tasted. Have a 2013 in cellar, best drink that right away, maybe get a better sense of what it could have been.
