Color: very pale and evolved. Nose: initially very tight, needed some time to open up. Red fruits, underbrush, oak, orange peel, even some tobacco. Mouth: spices, red fruits, dried flowers, medium+ body, medium acidity, some oak tannins, long finish. Structured and high quality wine. Will last another decade. 92 pt.

Medium body. Dark fruit. A little smokey. Got Earthy about 30m after opening. Low to medium acidity. A bit of barnyard on the nose after a while as well. Some minerality.

Clear medium ruby color. Aromas of fig & dried raspberry, with expressive secondary notes of sous bois, melted stone, tea leaf and sandalwood. Similar red fruit on the palate, racy and intense, with strong secondary depth of dried flowers, earthy spice and melted rock. Medium+ acid- well integrated, with well-defined fine tannic structure. Really nice precision and presence on the palate. Finishes with dry and juicy red fruit, and good length. This can certainly age well, but at the great QPR it's a nice early drinker. Excellent.
