  A very good wine, where the bouquet is strong and the taste is deep. Not over the top yet, but must drink now.
  Easy drinkable, and interesting to try a pure Mourvedre wine. Definetely try again!

  This is quite a good value; there aren't many sub-$20 cali wines that will remain drinkable at 7 years on, but this is at its peak IMHO. Still viscous on the first day, it has a sweet bouquet of cherry, leather and jonquil. The palate and finish have plenty of black fruit with lots of savoriness coming thru. By day 2 it was a bit thin and hot as it lost some structure, but still nice.

  Decanted for 1 hour. Did not feel it over-aged at all but ready to drink now. Oak has disapeared. Dark fruit with herbal and pepper touch. A bit of sweetness at the end. Very smooth, pleasant to drink. Good QPR !
