Crisp. A touch of tannin. White peach, nectarine, a touch of red raspberry and some fresh herbaceous was like parsley. Really nice on the deck in the hot sun. #SummerInMI — 5 years ago
Beautiful ruby burgundy colors. Aromas of red fruit, vanilla, and oak. Jammy, mossy, smooth, and easy drinking. — 7 years ago
Holy Moly - was in a hurry to pick up a bottle at the beach and scored this for $20 and it was absolutely stunning: inky color, completely opaque w/outstanding complexity on nose: plums & cassis, smoke, dried herbs, scorched Earth, sweet spice like cinnamon, roasted coffee mingled w/mocha, pipe tobacco and so on. Just kept evolving. Thought this was all Tempranillo based on DO - although I’ve had some nice Garnacha from this region, but I swore there were Bordeaux varietals. After some research determined there is CS & M. Seamless, expansive, well-done + totally over delivers QPR. I’m going back to buy them out of stock. — 2 years ago

What a gem! Rich ruby w/mild bricking at edge: gorgeous nose of dusty red & black fruit and tons of secondary notes - anywhere from coffee, tobacco, cassis, licorice & cocoa to dried herbs & minerals, very finely delineated red berried fruit at times, vein of minerality cutting through nose & palate. You can smell & taste the Tempranillo & Merlot individually. Med bodied w/finely grained tannins, regal bearing, integrated acidity and lingering finish. Going back to buy whatever they have left. Bump for QPR. Great chance to taste mature wine in the pocket — a month ago
