88 Points

Thursday, June 2, 2011 - I am in the 87-88 point camp on this one. Bottle opened last night for about 3 hours prior to consumption without a formal decant, very tight initially and had significantly opened up in 3 hours so this probably ideally at this point needs an hour or two in the decanter. Very youthful at this point, has at least 5-7 years of good life left in the cellar, very dark, reasonably balanced with prominent tannins present, did not note nearly as much heat as the previous tasting notes authors have noted, overall not an unreasonable QPR Languedoc wine for this price point. Nose of dark fruit and some must, primary flavors red fruit, some oak, balanced tannins and almost stewed fruit or pudding on the aftertaste. In the daily drinker category of wines for us. I do recommend this.
