  July 4, 2018 - This bottle tasted great. No decant and drank over 4 hours. Almost no sediment, very good purity, nice power, the fruit does have a baked/dried component to it.

  April 2, 2018 - The wine was decanted and enjoyed over two hours. The color is dark purple with a hint of bricking. The initial aromas were classic Buehler/Howell Mountain. Very nice mature cassis and ripe, roasted blackberry complimented by black rock minerality. The tannins are nicely integrated and the wine has a very nice fine, almost filigreed texture. The evolution of the wine was not for better or significant. Some fresh earthiness and stewed quality to the fruit emerged. There was a significant amount of sediment in the wine. While this wine didn’t show itself to be one of the better Buehlers I’ve had, it’s still a pretty solid performer and a very good QPR even if this vintage isn’t performing as far up the food chain as other vintages of Buehler do.

  March 10, 2012 - Paired with roasted chicken. Also drank with DeBrand's chocolates for dessert. Wine opened up a bit sharp; but became very tasty after a bit. Really enjoyable
