Rather lovely. My first tasting of this varietal. Lots of red fruit, cherry, raspberry, a touch of rosemary and eucalyptus. Fairly strong tannins but not rasping. Fresh and mouth-watering. I think it will improve given some time.

Fairly mature as expected from the vintage drinking well now. Rich glycerol coating the mouth, lovely fruit, balanced acidity. Always a good qpr choice
