Hillebrand Trius Red (V) 2007, VQA Niagara Peninsula
Meritage
Ontario, Canada
$21.95 (303800)
Hillebrand's Trius Red was among the first Bordeaux-blend wines to demonstrate the virtues of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot from Niagara. A consistently well-bred and delicious wine, it displays complex aromas and flavours of cedar, blackcurrant, cherry, plum, vanilla and tobacco, leading to a clean, juicy, medium-long finish. Try it now with grilled sirloin strips and multi-coloured peppers, or serve it with semi-hard Canadian cheeses. Cellar it for 4-6 years to experience its full potential.

Allowed it to decant for 2hrs. Quite a change over the course of two hours. Green/woodsy nose for the first hour, less pronounced later. Mild depth and richness, very tannic - it IS in the Bordeaux style. Everyone's advice is to cellar this wine. Will try again in a few years.
