July 28, 2012 - Nice dark fruit nose, smooth on the palate after a 1-1/2 hr decant, medium finish. Disappeared quickly at a Cabernet only tasting of 20+ wines. OUTSTANDING QPR!

July 21, 2012 - Another good bottle. Similar profile to earlier bottles but leaner and a little softer.

April 1, 2012 - I held on to a bottle or two to see if they had any chance of getting better with some age. Judging by this bottle I would say no. Either an off bottle or starting to age quickly.
