January 27, 2024 - Deep garnet. Alcoholic, herbal nose—thyme dominates, also pencil lead. At the edges some dark berry. Bold on the palate. I could mistake it for an Australian wine because the first thing that came to mind was berry flavored pancake syrup. But then there's a long, herbal finish: thyme, rosemary. The tannins have resolved. Certainly won’t evolve from here, if it was ever meant to evolve. There’s a sweetnes to it that’s friendly. I like it, but it’s not really what I look for in a wine but would please the fruit bomb people. Drink now or sooner.

May 22, 2016 - Very nice drinking wine. Full bodied, lush mouth feel, lots of black fruit, a touch of jammy but not overboard, smooth and great finish. Not much tannin to speak of. Great QPR.
