Absolutely outstanding QPR. Decanted 3 hours, drank over the next hour. Stunningly smooth and supple with just the right amount of fruit. Definitely more "new world" than "old." Wonderful mouth feel with a solid 30-second finish.

3rd of 3 Magnums and this was the worst of the bunch. Past its prime and was pretty much done after being open only a couple of hours. The last two bottles were really solid and developed significantly over a 4-5 hour drinking period. Drink up if you have them, if this bottle is any indication.

Decanted 3 hours, drank over another 2. For an entry-level cab, this is a really good effort. When sourced below $35, it's a phenomenal QPR. Once into the $40's, there are better values. Very lush and fruit forward, nothing like it's big 'sister' Kathryn Hall.
