  January 31, 2013 - Sadly - my last bottle. My purchases of this have been the best QPR buys I've made.
  
  Probably peaking though. PnP and unlike previous bottles this was fine with just a bit of aeration - didn't need nearly the time to open as did bottles from a year ago. Otherwise consistent with prior notes. This drinks so far beyond the $9 purchase price it's just silly. It's probably sold out at WTSO, but if it should reappear buy the max if you enjoy dry tempranillos in an Old World style.

  September 10, 2012 - Chocolate cherry cake and tea. Simple but expressive nose. Sweet, with moderate tannins on the finish. Excellent for the price.
