I found this still quite young. Best after a few hours of air. Violet, soot, dark fruit aromas; similar flavors along with some tobacco. Quite tannic. Drink or hold. Good QPR ($16.50USD).

Still heavy and rich but flavors are separating. Even with 1-2 hours of air didn’t enjoy.

Tasted great right after PnP. There is a velvety dark cherry/brambly mid palate that finishes very smoothly. Very little acid on the finish. Can drink easily without food. Complemented the eggplant lasagna we had for dinner nicely.

PNP. Deep ruby color. Tree nuts, black cherry and cola on the nose. Smooth, mouth filling palate, with good acidity. Medium intensity tannins on the medium finish. This was interesting and certainly reasonable for the price, but certainly not amazing or complex.

Consistent profile with my prior note except much more cedar coming through on the nose that was somewhat off-putting. Maybe bottle variation?

Maybe some bottle issues but the bottle I had was a damn nice Malbec. Big nose opens up nicely went well with steak dinner.

Rich, heavy wine. Dark plum colored. Nose is ripe blackberry, chocolate. Taste is same. Very rich palate, and lingering finish. Really enjoying wines we've had from Poesia vineyard.

Dark cherry, tobacco and cedar on the nose. Silky smooth in the mouth. Popped and poured, but continued to improve as it remained open.

Slightly better than the previous notes. A little more structure and better fruit, but all in all a great QPR.
