Deep red color. Notes of bramles, mocha and chocolate. Tasting on the first night though was dominated by a simple sweetness and the very soft tannins of it. Almost no mid-palate presence. On the second night it seemed to improve (although maybe I had lessened my expectations) so the candiness was less, but it was underwhelming still.

Nice Malbec, some cocoa and caramel, a bit hot, a little over the hill but still good.

Notsuper bad, but simple and a bit synthetic.

Very solid again; peppery nose with licorice hints and good balance with excellent structure and a pleasing finish. Good QPR.
