January 10, 2021 - I decanted for an hour and I recommend for the aroma alone. It really has a great red/dark fruit smell that is very pleasant. The wine is balanced and smooth. I would like just a bit more grip but this is a rock solid crowd pleaser and really doesn't have anything out of place or to complain about. Really Good wine and I like the QPR.

December 22, 2018 - Tasted alongside a Spanish Mencía (although the Mencía was ⅓ the price), this red blend was much smoother. It was a medium ruby with a dark core and slight orange toward the edges. There wasn't much on the nose—mostly ethanol—although blackberry and cherry came through later. It was full-bodied with smooth tannins and a moderate acidity. Blackberry and pepper were on the palate, with a long aftertaste of brown sugar and roasted coffee. In one word: smooth. It was enjoyed by everyone who tried it. Even at over $30 CAD, I would buy this again.

March 31, 2017 - Relatively well constructed. But very far from my personal appreciation. Over the top grappy and somewhat peppered and lacking tannic structure. Just too many flavours jumping around
