If you are looking for a hardy balanced Malbec, then look elsewhere. This is very fruit forward with minimal structure or tannins. It is simple on the palate with a short finish. The redeeming quality of this wine is the price. But, there are other Malbecs for a few dollars more that are far more nuanced and balanced. Pair with lighter fare.

Very good QPR. Expected it to be fruity without structure, but actually has a balanced tannin backbone.

Great QPR. Simple table wine, well balanced dark fruit and tannins. Medium length finish. It represents Côtes du Rhône well.
