Blind tasting: Light in color and somewhat brown-tinged. Caramel nose predominates. First impression was of pinot noir. Tastes of red fruit and a bit of licorice. Slightly medicinal. Tannins are smooth. Finishes long but bitter. Wasn't able to identify this as CDR/GSM.
Had with veal chop on the BBQ. Lighter pinot-like quality matched well with the food. I've had better CDR-Villages for this price.

If you like wines with horse sweat, barnyard and leather in the forefront (i.e. brettanomyces) this wine is for you. I was told this wine drinks just like a CdP, but from a lesser known appellation, and therefore, is much less expensive. I am happy to say that my Chateauneufs taste nothing like this wine. It isn't inexpensive due to its lack of pedigree - it's because they can't get a penny more for it. Too bad about the brett, because there actually is some decent fruit that just peeks through, and it also has beautiful structure. My advice is to spend twice as much, and get a bottle of something like Mas de Boislauzon, CdP. It is still relatively inexpensive, yet it is a serviceable, clean representation of its appellation. This wine is just too flawed to merit a higher rating.

Whoa, why all the bad press? This is really good QPR. It's mature, has a great nose (no brett), structure, and finish. Get more. Fairly typical.

The wine looks rosy colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. It definitely has a barn yard odour and the aroma of leather.
The body is light/medium. The wine has smooth texture and finishes short.

YUM. Still singing with great structure. On the palate, oak, leather, tobacco, and red fruit. Excellent QPR and just a well-made wine.

Still young and tight but shows great promise. Dry, mildly tannic finish smoothed out over the course of an evening. PA Chairman's Selection $13.99.

Dark red with a purple center; aroma's of black fruit and oak; balanced with some resin/toast flavors...needs to significantly decant or mature for a year. The next day it was much smoother with more berries in the nose. I will try the next bottle in 6 months with a long decant....could be an 88 at that point

Dark red with a purple center. It has aromas of black fruit and wood. It is balanced, very smooth and had rich flavors of dark cherries. The finish was long and clean.

Dark red/purple center...dark fruit aromas. Good and rich flavors of dark cherries but not as vibrant. This bottle seemed to have only one tone.

Beautiful cherries, earth, and herbs on the nose. Great dark cherry and boysenberry fruit with nice complemented wood and spices. Very well balanced with a great finish. Good value.

Dark red with a purple center...almost inky. It had aroma's and flavors of dark berries, spice and some oak. It is Rich with dark fruit flavors. It finished long and dry. I will decant the next one for several hours to mellow it a little. It needs to be paired with rich food such as beef stew or short ribs.

PopnPour, tasted over 2 hrs
-opaque deep dark red
-moderately aromatic grenache/kirsch, floral
-med acidity, med weight and concentration, some earthy elements mingle with subtle red fruit and licorice, bitters, med/med+ chalky tannins
-pleasant though a bit disappointing for the vintage, could use a little time to mellow the tannins but may lose some charm as the fruit fades further

Disappointed in this one, not sure if this was an off bottle or if the fruit has faded to the point that the alcohol has taken oven. This was a hot mess with nothing similar to previous bottles.

Tasted over 2 hrs
-saturated med dark red no bricking
-fragrant dark berry tar iodine
-med/med- acidity gives just enough energy, med weight fading dark berry mineral reduction, med/med- chalky tannins
-while starting to decline this is really quite nice without being overly ripe/hot/sweet, decent evolution over 7 years but its sweet spot was probably about 2-3 years ago

Once past the barnyard, which is almost overwhelming on opening (but fades with time), this shows a nice roundness from red, slighly jellied fruit, good structure to balance, and fabulous garrigue. Finish seems a bit metallic at first but rounds out with time.

Clearly, funkily tainted. Odd aroma, long bitter aftertaste. Della insists that this could be a good wine, were it not tainted.
