Moreover, the tannins were not as present. The wine was more integrated. Very nice bottle, particularly for 9 USD. |

11/16/2014 - NoWineWiz Likes this wine: 89 pointsMuted nose of blackberries & spice with fresh loam. The palate follows the same, but more pronounced flavors, plus sandalwood and decent acidity and medium finish. Best bottle of the three. |

Really no pleasure in this, and I'm honestly really pretty willing to find whatever good qualities a wine might bring even when there are aspects that are significantly lacking. But there just isn't much that is NOT lacking here. Tried over two nights. |

7/1/2011 - tward wrote: 87 pointsGarnet color, medium bodied, drinking smoothly right now with tannins well integrated and light. Nose and taste centered on cherry and a bit of earth with more aggressive elements having faded a bit and integrated. Well balanced, enjoyable, and perfect with dishes like grilled pork or chicken that have a touch of spice. |

1/31/2010 - K is for Kate wrote: 85 pointsDay 1: I thought this wine might be better with food, but red pepper hummus definitely didn't help. I wasn't picking up too much on the nose besides an initial rush of berry when I opened it and a little bit of plastic at first, and nothing else ever came through strongly enough for me to identify. I was afraid I might be picking up a hint of the dreaded wet cardboard/newspaper, but really it was more like dry newspaper, so not sure if it was a bad bottle or not. The taste was a little sour and lacking any kind of lushness or interest, but not undrinkable and seemed to be opening up a bit after an hour or so, so maybe it just needs to breathe for a while. |

12/3/2010 - tward wrote: 89 pointsSimilar note to last time (Jan. 2010), but didn't pick up the mint/herbal notes and farmyard scents were more subdued with cherry and some tartness more in the lead with noticeable earthy and even mineral/stone elements. The wine is a delight and a glass worth left in the bottle (suctioned) drank well a couple days later. |

10/3/2010 - boyajian Does not like this wine: 82 pointsI liked this bottle better than the last. I still can't totally place it, but theres a very distinct aftertaste to these that I am not a huge fan of. It is really good up until then though. |

7/22/2010 - Bellissimo wrote: 83 pointsOpened bottle, let sit opened for 2.5 hours. Nose is dark and rustic. Taste is bing cherries up front with a little acid and then the tannins take over. Definitely more "old world". OK QPR but the tannins make this hard to drink without food. |

7/7/2010 - tward wrote: 88 pointsThough the tannins finish a bit rough and dry this is a solid, rustic wine. The nose shows dry forest and berries and some farm and tar scents. The wine is firm in the mouth and transitions the elements found in the nose to the palate. It seemed to open up and show better balance after about an hour. Great QPR. |

6/8/2010 - Bellissimo wrote: 83 pointsTasted on second day of being open. Nose is more muted than previous experience with this wine with a little tar and black cherries. Taste is dark earthy cherry with some pleasant acids in the mid palate to finish. A little bitter tannin finish. Think I like this more than my initial tasting. |
