  Splash decanted and tasted.
  Medium ruby color; spicy nose (sandalwood? cinnamon?)
  Fabulous red fruit (tart cherry, boysenberry) with layers of umami-laden savory notes. Incredibly rich and complex! The finish goes on forever and each sip demands another. This one will only get better with a few more years in the cellar but it’s hard to resist right now.
  NOTE: I initially scored this a 94, but as I worked my way through the bottle over the next 90 minutes, it got better and better. I raised the score twice, to where it now stands at 96. Great QPR. Must buy more!

  Gorgeous, sweet berry and plum fruits. There's a touch of spice and plenty of earthy nuance. It has root vegetable notes and a palate that is plush and velvety. The finish is precise, bright, energetic and long
