You know that feeling you get when you forgot about a wine in the cellar for few years and then you open one up and found special magic? Now remember that it was ~30 dolllars?

Tasted again @ RS and it drinks above its price range. Super good QPR. Very enjoyable though against the 'top line' RS it is still one that is close, but not as close. I think it will become an unofficial 'mid+' level on the RS cab lines. Consistent with previous notes (and I noticed many people were picking it up upon tasting) 90+

Very good fruit, not complex but enjoyable with integrated sweet oak.

Drinks well above items price range. Second time we tasted it. Excellent qpr, nice feature night, great on the nose. Vote of the bottle-done in the first hour 90-91 (probably would have been 91 if not for the 'contest' it had with the wines we opened the night before)
