Dispute the corks being very moldy on all four bottles, this wine is very nice. WTSO if you guys read these thank you for refunding my money, you go above and beyond my expectations in many ways! Cherries, flowers, earth and cedar on the nose, the taste of cherries, vanilla, violets and smoke. Mild tannins, very soft and mellow, long finish. At $12 a real bargain 3/15/14

Popped and poured. Dark ruby with slight brick at the periphery. Beginning to show some sentiment. Leather, white pepper, vanilla, ripe dark fruit, and blackberry with a little heat still. Nice balance btw tannins and acidity. Medium bodied, and firm. Tobacco, plum, cherry. I'd decant and hold onto a bottle or two for another 3-4 yrs. Great QPR at 12 bucks. 89

Drinks like a $40 bottle - fruit forward. Easy to love, especially if you're into Rioja.

Very smooth finish hints of vanilla and cherries. Cork has no aroma, thought that was very strange until I had my first taste. Made perfect sense.

Needs some air to soften and then a fruit forward medium acidity and medium tannins. Not bad
