  Just did a PnP today, which I almost never do with a red wine. The first 15-30 minutes it was like a fruit salad in your glass--incredibly delicious. Then, it transitioned into a more complex blend, with cranberry, garrigue. and coconut and vanilla (from the oak aging). Loads of lip-smacking acidity which gives the wine so much freshness. Low/moderate ABV 13.5%. Very long finish, 45 sec. at least. Always a fan of W. Australian Cab blends.

  Would be happy at @ 5x the price. Honestly, drink as a first class mature Bordeaux with a pinch of acid & jam… just a pinch. Super balanced with beautifully long finish. This one just flourished with age. And feels like a few more years left.

  Screw cap. 13.5% abv. This has a nice cigar box nose, with some red licorice and tart red fruits. On the palate, it is a hair thin, with tart - somewhat sour - fruits, an oak profile, and a fairly long finish. The tannins are very fine. Maybe this is in an awkward spot, but I didn't love this bottle. Try again in 5 years.

  Ok… now it is drinking like a champ. Strong Bordeaux cab profile, integrated & with a long finish.

  1.5 years later and this wine is still kicking it. Great QPR.
