Because of its lighter nature I served at Christmas with Pork Crown Roast and it paired quite well.

Good wine. Nose smelled of spiced cherry. Good body and mouth feel with tannins still evident. Nice flavors, mostly plum/strawberry preserves, not the sweet kind purchased at the grocery store but the rich type you serve with a high quality brie, leather and currant. I enjoyed with a blackened porterhouse and would recommend. Have 2 more bottles and will most likely wait a while before opening them.

Fresh, ripe fruit, smooth finish. Got better after a couple of hours. Still tasted young but very enjoyable fruit forward wine. More mellow and smooth in 5 years.

Don�t worry about this being over the hill. On the PnP I wasn�t overly impressed but it was good. It was on night 2 after being vacuvined that this QPR really shined. The wife drank the last glass on night 3 and said it was still going strong.

This is in a perfect spot. Juicy, pliant, and very accessible, showing black and red currants, cherries, conifer, and walnut shell notes that are lifted by pine sap and exotic Sumac spice. Plump, luscious, and lively, this is tasty from start to finish.

Great QPR, very enjoyable. Paired with roasted beef tenderloin. Not overly deep or complex, but a great Napa Cab for $25

89 on the first night, missing balance but had some promise. 90-91 on the second night, much better integration, soft fruit balanced with oak and warm spice.

Very nice Cab that has a rich ruby red color on rim of glass. Notes of dark fruit emerged after a 1 hour decant. I could almost make out the tastes of tart cherry and possible vanilla. The overall taste and experience was very good. Med tannins with good texture and complexity. Even though this is a lower end Cohn bottle, I would still highly recommend this wine especially for the price point. I will be buying more of this …

Clear garnet color with medium legs. The nose is like blackberry, cherry and vanilla. Taste is similar to nose, except also has notes of raspberry and plum. Medium lite body with a polished texture and medium finish. Pretty nice balance of tannins and acidity with acidity giving it a tart finish. High on the QPR scale.

Great QPR. Night one, no decant. Somewhat constrained and tannins still dominate. Fruit started to come through in the second glass. I will update with night two, but expect a 89-90 rating. Improved night two. More black fruit, smoother tannins, medium finish.

Tannins dominated this wine, more so than many other '12s that seemed more ready to drink. Maybe better in 1-2 years.

Corked! ?

I will not enter my 91 rating, because I remember having this wine and thinking it was a 91. For a less expensive BR Cohn offering, this one is thick and dense. Ready to go actually from the time the cork was popped. Enjoyed it quite well, but I apologize and am sorry to say that I cannot really remember the characteristics.

Absolutely delicious, drinking wonderfully now but will also lay down for awhile. One of my favorites I've tasted in the 2012 vintage to date.
