You can see my other notes, this bottle has some stain power. Ballance is still a bit off with tannins and some alcohol on the finish. I think it’s still in the drinking window, but certainly some variation in the bottles this one drinks like it is much younger than it really is. Dark fruits, earthy, tobacco and a little bite in the back end.

Much stronger than the last bottle, to be fair fair I believe I got several these bottles from different locations. This one tasted like I thought it should and it’s prime drinking very well now.great QPR. Drink now or hold but will soften.

Consistent with other notes this is a nice wine, but it is pretty muted, tannins and florals have faded yet silky, smooth and on the backside. Always cellared, I hoped that it would last longer, but it is a drink now good QPR.

First of five. Dark plumb, earthy, and leathery upon initial tastings. Died down on day two and was well integrated but slightly muted. A very good offering but I don’t think it will likely improve with age.
Look forward to trying another bottle and will report back.

Decanted for two hours but still pretty tight and acidic. Note to self: Self, Don’t open the next bottle until 2030.
