Unfortunately not fully delivering at the moment. Eucalyptus and licorice on the palate, slightly more astringent and lacking the usual smoothness of Cali Cabs. Probably needs a few more years to integrate the acidity. — 5 years ago
The eponymous “classic” old school claret, leather and tobacco on the nose, wonderful length, palate built on a sound acid base, still youthful fruit but with tertiary leaf aromas, great! — 5 years ago
Interesting how much of a vintage a smaller wine can carry. Lots of tertiary aromas, extraordinary viscosity and glycerin on the palate, almost oily, i find this very enjoyable if you are into aged claret. — 5 years ago
Great value! Intense dried fruit on the nose, graphite and cranberry, full bodied and long, with a sweet aftertaste... almost burgundian! — 5 years ago
Wonderfully melted leather, black currant, paprika and tobacoo, this shows no sign of decline and is fully ripe. Could last another 20 years! — 5 years ago
This is still quite backward and slightly muted. Lots of mocha, truffle and leather, i would give it another 5 years of cellaring. — 5 years ago
Lots of Raspberry and red Cherries, ultra smooth and long, this is a winner! — 5 years ago
Great length, still quite youthfull and fresh, cassis and mint, lovely! — 5 years ago
Very pure nose of red fruits, tobacco and leather on the palate, this wine is built on acidity but still well balanced. Not showing any signs of age, this will last for ages! — 5 years ago

Fantastic QPR, one of the last great yet affordable wines, get your hands on it if your cellar is not full yet! — 4 years ago
