December 20, 2014 - Even better than the last bottle. Great QPR. Like a fine aged Bordeaux...vibrant fruit and a cherry finish that went on for a full 40 seconds. Loved it.

December 3, 2014 - Quite excellent for a 17 year old merlot. Plenty of fruit and the normally huge angular Delectus style is rather nicely integrated. Very happy to own a few of these.
