March 3, 2013 - Nose was moderately expressive from the get go, but more so after two hours of slow ox, revealing cherry pit, lemon pith, clove, violets and earth/minerals. Good intensity and focus on the palate, which is medium bodied. Tannins are polished and impart a subtle grip to the finish, but the highlight here are the bright acids which lend the wine great freshness and purity. This really hits a sweet spot - excellent QPR. Drink now with a good airing or in 5-10 years time.
