When first tasted it was too sweet for my taste. Very tart on the palate. Prominent fruit. Minimal oak. I will admit, much improved with decanting. I would not buy more.

A blend predominately of Cabernet/Mouuvedre/Zinfandel with a very small percentage of Petite Sirah and Carignan. Lots of dark berries and red berries along with plum. flint, fig, dark chocolate and spice. Luscious and fruit forward without being a fruit bomb helped along by by the Carignan that brings a savory flavor and tones down the fruit. Lots going on here and well worth the price in the mid-20's. Medium long finish. Improved with air and the next day was even better integrated, so plenty of life left in this one. Drinking nicely now but will likely improve with age. Needs a decant of at least 30 minutes.

excellent blend which captures the power of the Cab along with the Rhone varietal depth. The Zin adds some spice. Excellent QPR

This was a very smooth, fruity, and satisfying wine, both nights.
