Sept 2020.......gifted to Sue Sheardown.
Chris asked me to buy this for Sue, not 100% sure why, but it was returning a favour of some sort but Sue couldn't recall. Finally got it to her now, at Ovarian Cancer Walk, but was worried it was old so also gave her another Pinot Grigio, just in case.

Xmas 2018....at Dave & Rona's for dinner....was decent, smooth and easy drinking, not offensive in any way but also nothing terribly exciting either.

2020 + 2021*
Dec 2020.....with salmon melts. Light weight, pale, but quite tasty, easy drinking. Impressive (especially if only paid $20) though I would have preferred more body and flavour. All in all, happy with the purchase.
Spring 2022...sorta recall having it, my thoughts are similar to the above. A good value.

One left, summer 2021
August, 2020....Brought to dinner at the Tripp's (annual bocce tournament). Had with BBQ hamburgers. Wine surprised me, was expecting more heft, instead was medium bodied and quite juicy, succulent and refined. Really enjoyed it. Delicious!
Sept 2020....hostess gift to Dave & Rona. Heard from Dave that Rona opened it with girlfriends and they all loved it.
August 2022....had with Crystal, Sunday dinner. Still loving it and so did Crystal. Incredible value, really great pour for the money. Felt like a wine I could drink forever and never tire of. Checks a lot of boxes.

2021+2022+2023
July 2021....initially disappointed with first glass (wanted to take rest back) but on subsequent nights it tasted ok. Just an ok CC. Can keep to see if improves or return....don't gift (at this stage).
Oct 2021....had with pasta and tomato mushroom sauce Chris gave me for Christmas 2019. I would have opened up a nicer bottle had I access to my collection so I chose the best match I had here at WD. As it turns out, it was quite nice on this occasion. Dinner was lovely, the wine worked, I was happy (sad too).
