I know that probably not many of you have any RQs left from the 2007 lineup, but I've been leaving mine alone as every time I tried one, it just seemed a little raw. Well, last night I was making a Hungarian Goulash and needed some red wine to start in the stew. So I picked the Montepulciano Cabernet Merlot from the RQ series. It was my least favorite from the whole series. Until now that is...this wine is fantastic! It took a whole lot of time to come into its own, but all I can say is wow! Very complex nose on this wine and the taste and structure is out of this world! Very concentrated, and earthy tones, followed with silky tannins for a very long finish.
Moral of the story...if you don't like a wine that much, wait it out and try it again. I'm just happy I have about 24 bottles of this left!
