Community Tasting Notes 91

  March 8, 2014 - Not too bad, although not a 77 (learn how to score please!) and not a 91 (at least to my palate) its a decent QPR wine. The nose took about 30 min to open up, then you had some earthiness, oak and fruit. On the palate, you got strong forward fruit - plum and dark berry, with somewhat of a tart finish. Overall reasonable, however I would pair it with food to help mute it a bit, as a stand alone drinker its not the best.

  December 18, 2012 - The aroma is oak and berries and a little bit of alcohol. The taste is tart cherries with a hint of vanilla and blackberries.

  August 5, 2012 - Good, solid, cheap malbec for the price. Dark, rich fruit. Plum and some blackberry with hints of chocolate and cigar. Earthy and the 2008 was more dense than expected.
