April 5, 2020 - The wine looks purple colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. The body is medium/full. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.
Typical green pepper nose with eucalyptus notes.
Aged very will in the cellar for 10 year and much better than anticipated.
All this said, the wine would have lasted perhaps another but was perfact now. -

July 23, 2014 - First night was less memorable than the stronger and more desirable presentation the next day. Medium to big delivery, firm tannins and strong finish on day two. Surprised with the posted lower scores but no complaints from me on this enjoyable mid-week selection. Excellent QPR if you wer to need another reason to lean in this direction.
