  Was better night two, with the finish becoming much smoother. Was good but I didn’t find this as special as I remembered, but the last bottle I was drinking it with a steak and this time on it’s own.

  Ready to go! One of the best QPR wines I’ve had in a while! 45 minute decant. Rich fruit, and nicely integrated oak. Drank much more like a $100+ bottle.

  Retail $60. 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot, 3% Merlot. Once in a while, I get a sample that causes me to pause and wonder if I should hold onto it for a while. Most of the time, the sender of the bottle wants me to taste it right away, and publish my thoughts as soon as possible, usually to coincide with the wine's release. Well, while I would like to say that I purposefully held off with this wine...I just forgot about it, buried among my samples. Inky dark in the glass with exceedingly dark fruit (blackberry, cassis, plum), forest floor, and hints of spice. After a bit of time open, this improved fairly dramatically. From Very Good to Excellent. In another year or two? I would say it would be worth the wait. thedrunkencyclist.com
