November 3, 2016 - Acidic and mouth coating. Oaky. Opens up with strong flavors of bittersweet chocolate. Finish a bit flat and somewhat bitter. Something from 2012 should drink bigger.

January 22, 2016 - Dusty nose, with notes of raspberry and blackberry emanating from the glass. Tannic, tight and thin on the pallet. The acid is dominating. Not showing much concentration, depth or balance at the moment. Perhaps with time this will show better, but currently I am pretty disappointed, especially from a QPR standpoint. Expected better from the '12 vintage.
