Not sure I understand the other rating I thought this bottle was fantastic. Great structure, well integrated tannins, big flavor but some surprising elegance, and for the under $20 price point the QPV is exceptional.

I was excited to try this given a great vintage and a few great reviews here. I found it to be pretty boring, very muted and singular, short on the finish, not complex. Maybe the 2nd bottle will be better.

I had higher hopes for this wine based on the reviews of the few that tasted this wine previously on CT. The wine starts extremely light, over ripe fruit, light cherry and vanilla, light oak, lacks body and structure to be a 90+ point wine. It does get better after being open an hour or so, but overall many better wines in this price point.
