Strong performance! Dark cherry, blackberry, and earthy notes emerge from the glass on the nose, followed by a soft, well balanced attack on the palate, adding smoky flavors of roasted game on the finish. It gained weight and depth with 2-3 hours of air. Great QPR, we'll be getting several more to drink and stash away. 92+

Finally cracked one. Solid if unspectacular CC. Not suremit justifies the price. A little sleek for Sangiovese but bright and open. Typical cherry and herbal notes. Will be interesting to follow the other bottles starting a year from now.

A bit on the young side, but after opened and warmed up for an hour it developed more depth and was quite good with pasta Bolognese. Dark cherry and a lot of oak. Medium bodied, medium high acid, and some grippy tannins. Guessing it will be best in 2-3 more years.

Youthful, fruit-forward, yet a joy to drink now. Soft cherry and cranberry on the palate. Even better on day two.

Dark and powerful and earthy. Salty and mineral on the palate, lots of depth and gumption there. Just opened, monumental and magnificent.
