A nice solid QPR red wine. Body is a dark red, legs aren't too heavy. Drank over 3 nights, vacuum corking inbetween. N1 was a bold, fresh and a bit hot tasting, more blackberry and spice on the nose with some alcohol burn. The palate echoed blackberries and dark cherry flavor. Medium finish with some heat. N2 started mellowing out, heat was subdued flavors still there, more integrated and relaxed. N3 wow did it taste great! The fruit was muted, with oak and some spice showing up, but very smooth and balanced with a smooth medium finish. Given how the berries dropped off, I would suggest a drink it now, after either decanting or aerating, let sit for about 30 min or so.

Dark saturated red. Blackberry pie, oak spice and earth nose. Full bodied, blueberries, black cherries, smooth woody tannins, pepper, a touch of heat, tobacco, and a warm, medium length finish. Well made and satisfying.

Similar to last time, but better. More spices and satisfyingly aged tannins. One of my favorites from Ty.

This bottle seemed a little off. Not corked but not the typical Ty's Red. Have to see if the next few are the same.
