  Superficial wine. Scored in the middle of the CellarTracker rating system for 'Good'.

  Nose: red berries, currant, touch of earth, there is a floral component, anise, toasty oak.
  Taste: plum, currant, herbal notes, carmel / cocoa on back end with the oak.
  Not much acid in mid pallet, but did have a lingering finish of fruit and carmel oak. Ok QPR at $25, drink now,
  Not sure this will cellar long or improve much. May try the 2018 to compare.

  Dry, pliant, and full bodied, this shows red fruit, sweet tarts, and a kiss of toast alongside dusty tannin and youthful structure. Tasty but needs about 2+ hours to come into its own.

  Great initial smell and taste. Floral hints with level clay soil undertones. Unfortunate finish mars a very good wine. Finishes a bit soft and sour.
