December 22, 2023 - Deep dark burgundy red. Notes of cassis, ripe figs, bing cherries, pencil shavings and cedar. Very nice layers of black cherries, cassis, figs and mint. Great QPR. Enjoyable wine.

April 11, 2023 - Bold flavors of dark fruit, led by blackberry and plum, supported with vanilla, cocoa and old forest floor. Full finish with nice tannins.

February 28, 2021 - Opened for cooking, then took a sip. Terrible. Disjointed and harsh while still being very "thin". Almost poured it out, but decided to leave it open in bottle to try later. Three and a half hours later - what a change! Had now become a very nice, round and smooth light Cab that was a pleasant afternoon drink. Open this one early and give it some air if you're planning on drinking it soon. I'd recommend drinking this by itself or with some light snack-type fare. Agree with others that this is a good QPR wine.

October 4, 2020 - The nose is not very expressive. The layers of fruit are expressive and enjoyable. Layers of blueberries, figs, mint, toast and pepper. This is an outstanding QPR wine. Outstanding value for the quality.

April 18, 2020 - Deep red in colour, with no obvious browning on the rim, quite viscous and youthful in appearance. Toasty pepper on nose. Taste obviously minty/gum leaf, underpinned by berry flavours. Great palate length, strong through all phases, long finish. Tasted 6 years after vintage, and should be good for a further 4-5 years at least!
