95 Points

Wednesday, March 27, 2024 - Grade: EX+. Modern, extracted style, but not overdone. This wine needed a 2 hour decant to settle down and was even better on day 2 after vacuvin. Overall, this is a really great effort.

Color: Dark Ruby, light rim
Nose: heady aromas of intense dried-cherry, cloves, menthol, vanilla, cedar
Palate: combines power with elegance, intense cherry, hibiscus, menthol, vanilla, coconut, great mouth feel, great drive with firm tannins on the mid palate. The precisely focussed acidity keeps things fresh, leading to a super-long, dry, sour berry finish. I would give this another 5 years to fully develop, should last for decades. Outstanding QPR.
