Dark ruby. Clean, muted nose of blackberries, raspberries and black plums. Palate is consistent with the nose. Dry, clean, smooth tannins, medium-bodied, medium acidity. Alcohol is nicely balanced at 13.5%. This is a surprisingly elegant wine. It is Bordeaux-like in its finesse, but without any of the negatives often associated with cheap Bordeaux. Drink now, although it will certainly keep for a couple more years. Great QPR.

Great QPR. Easy to drink, good balance of ripe, dark fruits and some tannins. A little weak on the follow-through, but this is tough to beat for the price.
