Restaurant wine purchase, decanted…Silky smooth but not jammy, well balanced with acid pop and sour cherries on the open and drying tannins to finish. Really enjoyed this style that felt very different from many of the Chilean blends I've had. Very clear Bordeaux style.

Decanted for approx. 30 minutes…Rich, without being heavy. Tart cherries to open and mineral mid. Nice acid pop and good backbone. Just really well made wine in a very good place right now. Smooth, but with decent complexity, and intact tannins.

Restaurant purchase…Very good QPR Bordeaux blend. Silky, Cab forward with berries to open and a wisp of vanilla, well balanced with a nice backbone.
