  September 29, 2012 - Should be decanted. Still young but pretty good QPR at around $20.

  August 3, 2012 - Nose of anise and licorice. Palate blackberry chocolate and plum. Velvety texture with a soft mouthfeel - almost shiraz-like. Medium to long finish with acidity, obvious American oak that is a little warm for my palate. Overall it's well integrated but a little over oaked? More time??

  July 11, 2012 - Full-bodied Cab with an initial terrific burst of jammy berries, settling into spicy prune and plum. Very important to open this wine in advance and let it breathe for at least an hour before serving. At a party of 10 wines, sampled by 16 tasters, this was the highest-scoring. Indeed, every taster scored this wine average or better, and most gave it high to very high scores. Good now, and seems suitable for cellaring, as well. Terrific value.at $20.
