Got from last bottle for $16. Not as good as their Les Gres. Needs to sit. From Jeff H: It's not bad. Mature and round but without support in terms of acid or tannins.

Drank first 1/3 of bottle over dinner, nose was immediately present upon opening with lush black fruit and a bit of vanilla.
Flavor is just short of jammy territory but earthy bitterness evens it out a bit. I’d still say it’s a bit much on the sweeter side to drink alone.
The finish starts a bit short but expands with air medium body with moderate to high tannins, no alcohol burn. Still feels very young at this point, could definitely age for a few more years.
Edit: Day 2 the aroma and flavor is still extremely vibrant. Tannins are still very grippy with decently lasting finish. I could use a bit more savoriness to my taste in this wine but very good QPR for $16
