Saturday, August 3, 2013 - My experience of this wine was nothing like that of other tasters here. I found this surprisingly under-control for such a warm vintage--14.5% ABV isn't out of line for CdP, and I didn't get any of the turpentine characteristic that I associate with blistering-hot summers in the Mediterranean. Middle weight. This had a pronounced blueberry fruit profile, a bit too sweet for my liking, and I didn't perceive the complexity that others seem to have noted even after 90 minutes in the glass--this seemed pretty primary and straightforward. I'd have liked a little more acid to give it some lift. Bad QPR.
