  Good QPR! Nose was muted, but decent medium to full body with a good amount of fruit and acid still. Finish was enjoyable and nice for the price.

  A nice little Walla Walla cab. Excellent value. Showing secondary notes. Very good balance. More complex and balanced than one would expect. Holding up well. Plenty of life left. Kind of hard to score, because it is very well done, but, $15? Are you kidding me. Maybe the best under $20 stateside cab I have had. Doesn't have that "wow" factor, but does provide more than I expected. I think 88 points is fair, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

  Soft, berries, not much underlying depth. Mellow tannins.

  Light to medium bodied on the dry side but nicely smooth. Has more time left.

  Nice, typical K style. Jammy, complex. Needs a lot of air.
  
  Best day #4 open
