- Crimsom color - I had this wine many years ago and then had the pleasure of having it again recently. It is on the downside, but there is still a lot of life left in it. Decanted the full bottle for an hour to wake it up. Still has balance, but not as much alcohol and fruit as it once did. However, this is how I prefer my wines.

Should have heeded my prior note, as I do think this is on the downside. Still good, but the oak is still strong while the fruit has muted a tad. May have benefitted from a decant.

Loved this wine. 30 minute in glass decant. Very smooth with nice dark fruit flavor. Saved last glass for 2 nights and it slipped, so I'm thinking I shouldn't wait too long to consume the last 2 bottles. Great QPR!
