May 28, 2023 - Not sure a better QPR exists. Incredible complexity with ripe plums, stewed tomatoes, olives, eucalyptus and myriad herbs and spices with a nice beam of acid and tannin still present. Ridiculously peppery, spicy and gamey nose - what fun!

February 24, 2020 - For me, this is too ripe and alcoholic, though it is not super heavy. It has very nice flavor and, if you are into the newer-style CDP (Parkerized, 2007 style) you will love this, at it is similar but with more pure fruit and not quite as heavy.
