  June 30, 2016 - Dark and a hint of brettanomyces in the nose.
  Quite tannic in the beginning. After one hour of decanting the wine is a revelation: Very bold, deep and Long. Generosity, fat and cool climate Cabernet fruit at the same time.
  A much better bottle than the previous one I had a couple of months ago (see my note).
  Excellent wine. Outstanding QPR for 19 bucks.

  February 10, 2016 - Well made, stylish CabSauv (89% CS, 5% CabFranc, 3% Malbec, 3% Petit Verdot accord. to estates Information) with the typical flavour profile I´m seeking for (Black Currant, hint of green peppers etc.). With soft tannins the wine is very balanced and pretty but it lacks a bit thrill, complexity and structure even after two hours. Now the miracle starts.´.. Much better the next day. Quit surprisingly bold, complex (tobacco and cedar box) and still fruity after two days in an almost empty bottle. Pretty good length. Obviously the sediment on the bottom of the bottle re-enhanced the wine.
  Sh... I was close to get it wrong. Thank god I saved the left wine in the fridge.
  For 19 Euros the QPR is good.
  
  Not much further development in sight. So drink up during the next 3-4 years before the fruit is gone.
