Incredible QPR on this award winning rosso veneto. Gently infused oaky cherry bramble and sour black cherry cassis amazingness.this is perfectly balanced a hint earthy and silky smooth on the tongue. — 7 months ago
Ok. A bit flat, but it was a bit cold out and imagine this would be nice in warmer climates. Nice aromas of peach and strawberry though honestly mediocre and unmemorable — a year ago
2001 Musar is a great way to start to an amazing week. A delicate blend of Cabernet Savignon, Cinsault and Carignan aged in oak for over a year. At its peak from my cellar - 23 years later it's showing notes of dried cherries, cassis, prunes, some leathery vanilla oakyness. The complexity is off the charts and I'm getting aromas of smokey Tennessee tobacco barn and cherry bramble which is a combo I never imagined I would want so bad. The structure is light and balanced. Silky smooth acidity and fine tannins which is a hallmark of this exquisite wine. — 3 days ago
What a great value at 10£ in London. 6 years old, and showing great fruit forward, smoky hints with a silky vanilla oak. Great with grill night — 9 months ago
Tasty oak and cassis and cerise juices combine for a super enjoyable bottle of wine from a perfect vintage year. Wonderful structure and balance.

A amooth high QPR 2018 drinking in 2024. Notes of Cherry and pomegranate woth a hint of vanilla / oak. This will please everyone...it's not super complex but nice with BBQ and roaste veggies — a month ago
Hint of sweetness but can drink like a regular red if paired with a spicy dish like indian. Great, and different on day 2. Lovely silk smooth cherry and a hint of smoky earthyness. A hint of...fig? on the nose but nice structured black and red fruits make this a winner. — 7 months ago
BBQ night hidden treasure with this Valpolicella gem from 2014 drinking in 2023. Perfect silky tannins and great oak and cherry notes with earthy raspberry finish. Nicely balanced for a good value — a year ago
2014 drinking in 2023. Robust, punchy and delicate after 9 years. Red fruits, okay vanilla, leather yummy casssis and a hit of undergrowth. We drank this over 2 days snowboarding in Austria and it hit the spot. — a year ago
