I was happy with the wine in a vacuum. Meaning, in a blind tasting, or not seeing/thinking about the price tag, it was a good wine. Great flavors, surprising but pleasant mouthfeel, and a long finish considering how light it felt in the mouth. I think 07 was a decent year for them. The only disappointment was the QPR, which in my current situation would keep me from buying it again. If I had had it at $35-45, I'd probably be telling everybody I ever met to go buy a case.

Sad you didn't like the Relentless. I think its a really yummy wine in certain contexts (perhaps that's part of your objection). I do agree that it's a pretty bad QPR at $70+ though. I've had my bottles for a few years so the price pain has subsided a bit I guess. I'm relishing opening one up again soon. I'd say that the two I've had in the last few months were among my top 10 wine experiences in that time.
I'm lowering my wine consumption temporarily until the end of the month for London. Until then, guiz, recommend me a bottle from here:
For drinking there or bringing back? I'd probably drop it on a 2000 Leoville La Cases or a Cos d'Estournel from the same vintage. Infanticide to some, but with those choices I don't think I could resist...

Going to get a dryer gewurtztraminer to pair with some prok confit that is heavy on cinnamon, allspice and clove. Any recs?
