This came out firing and did not let up. We were eating outside and when they brought the decanter out it literally filled the area with its nose. Lovely. I’ve rated it a lot and I think it’s consistent. — 4 hours ago

Whoa! I’m liking this one. Power right off the bat. Enough make me go whoa I wasn’t expecting that. Rich toffee flavor profile so the name is what you get. It’s rich in flavor, some heat for sure and a full mouth grab you by the collar on the palate. I’m going to have to look for this but am afraid I’m too late. Finish goes for minutes. — 2 days ago

Let this sit for a while and there is a definite milk chocolate on the remaining drips. Missed out on this one.

It felt a bit on the edge. This was a bottle bought not direct from the producer so might have had some impact. Color was not browning but not the normal clean purple so I’m hoping others are better. — 21 days ago

Yeah it needed like 9-12 hours more air. Those SQN reds/whites ain’t no joke. Whites gotta be decanted. Those wines get the princess treatment.
