Pretty close day 1, much better day 2. At first I didn't think this was good enough to cellar but day 2 changed my mind. Tannins and slight juicy acidity showed up so for $30 maybe worth laying some down. Anybody had these past vintages at 8yr mark? Curious how the great 2018 vintage of this wine may age?
Nose of black raspberry with some bramble. Medium body. Nice red fruits on the palate - black cherry and Santa Rosa plum. Decent enough depth. Nice little tart and soft tannins on a moderately long finish. Very good wine and great value for $30 or less.

Really good. Napa terrior and well balanced. Excellent QPR. Only bought 2 but need to seek out more. Under $25! Yes please. 92 pts or 4.3 stars.

This is in a really good place: plenty of dark fruit, decent depth, fine tannins and a long juicy finish. Great QPR.
