    April 3, 2024 - Seems like it has aged since the last tasting.

    December 28, 2023 - This is way too young at this point. Spent five hours in the decanter, and bareley opened up. This has a minty note that very pleasantly cuts through the dark fruit, but the tannins are too coarse and intense at this point to enjoy easily (and if you do, do it with food).

    December 24, 2023 - Excellent match to traditionel Danish Christmas Eve Duck (not an easy match with caramalised potatos and red cabbage coked in vineager and honey 😋)

    December 11, 2023 - Eucalyptus. Effervescent. Rare beef. Cranberry. Savory. Tremendous value. Excellent wine. Fantastic enjoyment. My top four QPRs - check my notes for specific bottles - include this along with Janasse, Pegau, and Turley.
