Ruby color with light Ruby edges. Gorgeous bouquet of smoke, burnt rubber burnt dark cherries. In a very appealing way. Good concentration with a good fruit yet also lots of complex secondary flavors. Smokey dark cherry, burnt Earth, red cherry, smoky tomato flavors. Very complex. Delicious. Drinks really well now but feels like it has the structure to age further. A QPR super hit. Drink now to 2028. A must try. This is a really rewarded sellering and it is very complex and delicious

Nice dark Ruby color. Intense red cherry tomato spice sweet Earth bouquet. Medium-bodied with good fruit flavors of red cherry, tomato, strawberry. Long tart tannic acidic finish. when first opened it was a little bit disjointed and really need to breathe for at least an hour. It is hard to tell if this is at peak and needs to be drunk up or can age longer. it does have a good tannins and acidity but while it has good fruit I don't know if it will hold up to the tannins and acidity. Great QPR. Great wine.
Very nice. Nice Ruby color. A bouquet of Earth laced with cherry and tomato. Concentrated with earthy cherry tomato flavors. This comes across as lighter than vintages that follow it. This is at peak now and should last another few years. Drink now through 2023. Very nice, very smooth come over enjoyable. But comes across as much lighter than the more recent vintages

Wild nose of rich mushroom, dirty diaper, crazy mineral, rich loam, and lovely black and red fruit. The mouth on this medium bodied wine is ripping with rich acid, mineral, and saline, and lovely mouth draping tannin, with gripping tannin, showing blackberry, dark cherry, currant, with coffee grinds, and mineral. The finish is long and pith-laden, with espresso, and rich graphite, and scraping mineral that lingers long. Bravo!!! Drink till 2020.

It's decent, not my favorite (prefer c.g.).
