  May 19, 2016 - This 13-year old Super Tuscan drank wonderfully. No decanting needed. The slightly darker garnet red that shows up in older vintages was present.

  March 7, 2016 - Just eh. Dark cherry color. The nose was never really opening up, the palate had the nice Sangio thing going. Mouthful of fruit, some jump in the alate then eh. Never really opend up over two days or came around. Either bad storage, bad year, but really disapointed on QRP.

  December 19, 2013 - Dark colored, brooding wine with black fruit, rather heavy aromas of licorice, chocolate and a whiff of vegetality.
  Typical Tuscan nose, full body and tannic.

  May 11, 2013 - Good wine from unremarkable vintage, limitations in taste and nose but well made, reasonably complex w peppery, supple aromas. Will improve w at least 2 hrs decanting. I wouldn't bother w much more time in cellar, drink within a year or two.
