  Drank this mid April 2020. Still a strong smooth solid presence, mature fruit. I was surprised it was drinkable, given its age and screw scap. I guess it was well sealed, small pop at opening. Do not leave overnight: not drinkable next day.

  should buy more of this. 2nd bottle of the night, but was a great addition to dinner.

  Very dark red-purple color. Drank 1 glass with dinner. Nose has blackberry, tar, mint, some licorice. The palate is fairly dense, medium-full body, blackberry liqueur, mint, integrated tannin, medium finish.

  Yum!!! Hedonistic!!! Rich, dense, concentrated, jammy, juicy, ripe, red, blue and black fruit, with layers of chocolate and vanilla... A delicious full-bodied wine! No complaints with this modern fruit bomb! Good QPR. A good substitution for port ;) Love it!
