  June 9, 2023 - Dark Garnet with some brick on the rim. Nose of green olive tapenade, dark fruit, some spice box undertone. Body has partially resolved tannins and freshness to keep in balance , medium long finish Nice wine. Brings back memories of Rioja outside of Logrono. A tapas of grilled duck liver on baguette bread would be perfect.

  January 23, 2023 - Tannins have dissipated but wine in still primary, so I assume this is a good drinking window. Not a complex wine but enjoyable with a piece of red meat.

  May 2, 2020 - This wine has aged beautifully and still has a few years left on it. Luscious, rich. Needs to be opened an hour or two before drinking. Amazing QPR.

  March 11, 2020 - Cellaraid Discovery Box; 5/19/2017-5/26/2021 (Delivered to Home): Deep ruby core with some fading garnet at the rim, viscous and highly extracted. Pronounced nose with mint chocolate and meaty aromas, as well as dried prunes and paprika. Still a firm structure, and high alcohol, yet quite fleshy and silky. Flavours of ripe blackberry, menthol, dark chocolate, bit of tar, and chilli pepper. A long finish. Great!
