Outstanding QPR! 51% Cab Sauv, then Merlot, Cab Franc, and Petit Verdot. Drinking very well now with some air but has stuffing. Love the balance here. With NY Strip. — 2 months ago

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose with black fruits, cedar, spices and chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry and very fruity on the palate with black plums, cooked cherries, spices, oak, licorice, vanilla, chocolates, tobacco and herbs.

Spicy and tangy on the finish with soft tannins.

This 11 year old GSM blend from Paso Robles is complex and tasty.

Needed a couple of hours to open up properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

This Single Vineyard is rich and extracted. Fruit forward with a nice mouthfeel. Delicious.

Robert Parker 97 points.

I paired it with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses. Paired beautifully with the Prosciutto.

A blend of 51% Syrah, 31% Grenache and 18% Mourvedre.

15.2% alcohol by volume.

51% CF, 49%ME. Enjoyed the wine & blend. For me, these wines are a bit rough when young but smooth out nicely with age. — 2 years ago

Another very interesting example of this cool climate Bordeaux Style Blend. Pennsylvania grown and produced. Cabernet Sauvignon (51%) Merlot (43%) and Cabernet Franc (6%). Only bottled in select years. Dark cherry aromas and flavors with subtle notes of earth and vanilla. (Aged 19 months in French Oak.). Lighter in body than many traditional Bordeaux Blends, but the tannins are reasonably chewy and the finish is long. Nice effort. Revisited in November 2021. Aging nicely. — 3 years ago

A blend of 6 vintages - 2020 (51%), 2019 (31%), 2018 (3%), 2017 (8%), 2016 (5%), and 2015 (2%). From the Hoffmann’s Dallwitz vineyard. 6327 bottles filled. Aromatics of old vine Barossa Shiraz. The fruit is so plush and ample together with liquorice, chocolate, blue fruits, and spices that it masks the M plus tannins. I note that Fraser likes to taste these Little Wines “when primal and vital, a year or two after vintage “. I totally agree. I have tasted Little Wines with over 5 years of cellaring and find that you are giving up that freshness and vitality for a limited increase in savoury profile. The secondary value of Sami-Odi wines have increased dramatically in recent years. I paid $55 per bottle on release and note that United Cellars are now selling for $325. All the more annoying when I broke a bottle unpacking the tricky little cartons of 3 when I received them. The odd 4 letter word was uttered!!! Therefore I have one left for future enjoyment. — 3 months ago
