Expressive dried herbal nose. Strong leather earthy character to this wine with sweet cherry and cigar box cedar at the back end. Still quite tannic, but fairly good balance. Will probably improve over the next few years and last a few more years after that.

Very drinkable, fruit forward wine, with some interesting herbal notes, and a very pleasing finish. Enticing nose smells better than it tastes, but still very satisfying. I would not call this a QPR wine. It is fairly priced at $20, but is only a bargain in the respect that it is marked down from the ridiculous price of $80. Would not pay $30 or even $25 for this wine.

Very nice big bodied fruit forward wine. Still has enough depth to keep it interesting, but do not open expecting a Rioja style wine. Very clean, with layers of red and black fruits, with just a hint of organic earth and leather. A great wine for the style and a steal at the price.

Dry heath, plums, violets, mahogany, chocolate on the nose. Intense focused core of sweet berry fruit, firm integrated tannins, delicate acid backing, lovely aromatic after notes. Perfect with grilled pork chops and cider reduction sauce. 50 + 16 + 16 + 8 = 90.
