PnP with a chicken dinner at home. Didn't like it nearly as much as I did at the winery a year ago, maybe it will be better tomorrow? Perhaps it just needs more time in the cellar; will revisit the second bottle in another year or two.

Smooth fantastic Cabernet/Merlot blend. Fruit forward with hints of blackberry and dark cherry and vanilla on the finish. Paired well with beef, but equally enjoyable having another glass after dinner. Wish I had more.

Red fruit, dark chocolate ,mid to late palate cedar, and graphite. Tannins smoothed with time, bright acidity. recommend at least a 1 hour decant. Can cellar for another three years based on acidity and tannins.

Tbis is a good wine, but it’s not a WOW wine. For the $$, it should be.

Not convinced decanting would make a difference. This is a medium body wine with pepper, blackberry, blueberry notes.

Sadly this wine was past it’s prime. It tasted very much like an aged Appassimento or even on the verge of Port! I was very excited to try it and disappointed with the results. Nothing like an aged Bordeaux and I have had several.

Really didn’t know what to expect. Dark cherry and black plum on the nose. Dark fruit with some cedar, graphite and cigar box. Long finish with well integrated tannins that benifits from at least an hour decant. There is a brightness to the finish which imho implies this can be cellared for at least five years. “ The blend is five traditional Bordeaux grapes.”Drinking very nicely right now.

Splash double decant. Deep dark magenta color. Oreo cookie, coffee grounds, blackberry, plum, and tangerine. Smooth, dry palate. Full, round tannins on the longish finish.

This is my greatest aging achievement. I bought this more than six years ago, very early in my wine collecting. It’s been sitting untouched in my first Eurocave since that time. It has aged very well.

Got this at the winery after a nice personal tour and tasting. Off the beaten path in Coombsville but great view and property. This is definitely above my normal price range so hard to judge QPR, but it is among the best Napa cabs or cab blends I have had. All of the elements are remarkable; great classic cab in the nose followed by a delicate and balanced palate where the other varietals soften the taste very well; the body is medium but “full” at the same time and the finish is lasting and satisfying. This was perfect to bring to The House of Prime Rib in S.F.

Decanted for an hour and had with grilled steak. Seemed tight at first and dominated by the food, but opened up after dinner as I was able to focus. Body is delicate and nose is muted yet lingering. Taste is full and tannins softened with time. By the end, this wine delivered, though not quite to the price point.

Second bottle is consistent with the first, enjoyed two years later and still holding together very well. Decanted for an hour before drinking. Perfect with filet mignon.
