  November 29, 2021 - In a great place with plenty of cellar life ahead, this bottle is a QPR super star!
  
  Nose, according to my 12 year old girl who's got a great instrument (she doesn't drink wine, just evaluates aromas), in order: dark blackberry, pipe tobacco, cedar, dark cherry, saddle, licorice, a fresh green vegetal note.
  
  It's interesting to me that she didn't pick up much of any tertiary notes, she does have a good nose for those. I didn't get much in the way of mushroom sandalwood tea decomposing alcohols etc either.
  
  Slightly big on the palate but carries itself well. This wine can work well with food or not, pairing spans from pizza to meatier cuts of steak.
  
  Last of my three, happy with all of them!

  August 13, 2021 - At peak. Pop and pour. Will last another 5 years at least. Well integrated tannins, plenty of primary notes and fruit left on the palate with some secondary notes as well.
  
  I must say I find this wine generally ages a lot better than it's given credit for. Have had some wonderfully ages bottles when in Italy. Drink or hold.
