April 18, 2024 - Much improved since last bottle 6 months ago, great balance, very subtle nuances of chocolate, vanilla, coffee and cedar.

April 17, 2024 - 1st bottle was an eyeopener, great qpr. 2nd bottle was a late open and only had a glass before vacuvin. At this point it was an 89-90. The next day however it was doa.
Just flat, no character, just blah. It's still a good bottle for the $$ but just drink up after opening. -

April 4, 2024 - Fine Tempranillo with a lovely fruit and spicy nose. Rich palate with plum, vanilla, chocolate. Long spicy finish.
