A nose of dark fruits and spices, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied Bordeaux blend with blackberry, cassis, vanilla and spices on long finish. A very good QPR. www.winelx.com

Left-bank-style blend that, if I understand correctly, is sort of a kitchen sink of grapes that don't make it into the main Trefethen labels. I didn't find any real harmony here, but it's certainly hugely fruit forward bordering on jammy (some might say IS jammy, YMMV). Heavy tears on glass suggest ABV might be higher than claimed 14.5%. Not my style but I can see others liking it.

I drank this late with the Dugan’s and it was delish.

Great steak wine. Lots of oak and classic napa cab fruit. Very accessible and enjoyable for such a young wine. 90
