2008 Woot Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Monkey 2nd Prize

This one has mellowed out tons. Strong taste of chocolate. I do believe it's time to drink this one if you haven't already. Great QPR and great per se. Pairs great with Netflix.

2009 Ty Caton Racchus Red

Right out of the bottle with no decanting or aerating, the nose was distinctly cherry and chocolate, and the first few sips reinforced that, but with a hint of pepper added. Over time, it opened up and actually became less fruity, but more of the chocolate flavors and even something like coffee came out. All in all, very delicious and very happy with such a great QPR.

2009 Clot de l'Oum Côtes du Roussillon Villages Caramany La Compagnie des Papillons

Opened the bottle to a very earthy, dusty, and herbaceous nose which gave way to increasingly more dark fruit over time. The mouthfeel is light and easy, and the soft but present tannins, combined with a very nice acidity make it quite drinkable and refreshing. The taste is of dark fruit, pepper, green vegetation, and slightly medicinal. There's a not-too-overpowering mineral finish which is quite enjoyable. Nothing extraordinary but delicious and engaging enough to definitely buy again.
