Open it and let the alcohol blow out for 45 minutes. Then you'll taste big earth and tannins. Suspect way too soon to drink — 9 years ago

Attractive QPR keeps this one in our cellar. Not surprisingly an hour or two of breathing helps blow off some of the fruity taste. Opens with hints of strawberry and raspberry; after a bit of oxygen this Rioja yields a subtle complexity you'll enjoy — 11 years ago

Stalwart, standby that never fails. Alas the QPR falls short of more modest contemporaries. Currant, tobacco and a hint of cranberry on the back of the tongue make this one a pleasure to drink — 11 years ago

Fair...a bottle someone brought to our Christmas party. Easy drinking but, candidly, I'm not a big Merlot fan. Smooth, simple, earthy hints of currant, tobacco, and autumn leaves — 11 years ago
