    March 29, 2023 - Opened after the first bottle was corked. Dark fruit and strong acid dominate but the tannins have smoothed out and it makes for a great match with broiled rack of lamb.

    May 18, 2022 - A really nice bottle of wine. Soft tannins that are very well integrated, lots of red and black fruits. Great QPR, this is drinking really well right now. Drink now.

    January 24, 2021 - This is similar to a bottle drunk almost exactly two years ago, but with softer tannins and distinct cherry fruit on both the nose and the palate. This can be drunk now with a few hours of air.
