Pretty darn yummy for a Barolo under $18. Taste of tobacco, cherry, oak and grippy tannins.

8.7 compared to other Barolo's, but I'd say an 8.9 for QPR.. Pretty decent for only $25, has all the right stuff including earthyness, leather, ripe red fruit tones, and acidity, only lacking the floral aroma and a touch of tannin, not bad though for a newcomer to the grape.

Far from a ratings leader, still this Barolo was a pleasant complement to Sunday dinner.
