    April 8, 2023 - Great balance and integration between fruit, wood, oak and ageing notes. Truffle, forest floor, dark fruit, plum, cherry. Very good QPR.

    January 1, 2023 - Absolutely mind boggles that this wine is 30 years old. Tons of fruit, acidity and savory black olive and meaty notes.

    October 19, 2022 - I like it. Tranquil. Acidity still there. Smooth. Goes very well with my spanish sausages. 92 for sure.

    Maybe not top bang for bucks. But I'm glad I've tried it.
