Cork was slightly compromised, red streaks to the top and crumbled a bit upon opening. Wine did not seem to suffer badly. Slightly more aged than my previous bottle, more of a maroon-ish brown color.

A relatively open knit and fruit forward wine compared to most of Burgess's wines. Blackberry nose. Rich mid palate. Sweet vanilla finish, but not unreasonably so. Just wish this had a bit more structure either from acidity or tannins. Still, for the price paid ($9.99 discounted), this is extraordinary QPR.

Drinking beautifully now...soft tannins, good fruit, very smooth, medium finish. Wonderful paired with a nice steak. Great value. So glad that I have 3 more. The future looks bright.

In a great place right now. Elegantly styled on both nose and palate. Medium in body, relatively lush mouth feel. Seems fully resolved and at its peak. Excellent QPR at $20 closeout.

Decanted for an hour. Rich, dark fruit. Smooth vanilla oak. Seems like there was plenty of life left in this bottle.
