    September 11, 2013 - This wine certainly showed better once it had a chance to open up. Blueberries, some sweetness... I did not get the spice from the syrah that I was expecting. All in all, a very nice wine, but I don't need any more of it.

    June 27, 2013 - Popped and poured. A nice healthy nose. Huge, balanced, fruit on the palate. The mid-palate particularly sings. And it lingers nicely on the finish. Dark fruit, perhaps boysenberry, but not plum. Integrated tannins. Wifey says its slightly hot, and voila, it is 15.8%. I missed it at first as I was so enthralled, but she is very right, thins the finish too. Great value and yummy.

    February 9, 2013 - Similar notes to previous reviews- a tasty CA Rhone, but nothing special and QPR isn't that great.
