Mostly secondary flavors. Not the right QPR for me. It’s not a bad wine, but I was expecting more given the maturity and terroir of the region. It may also be that I prefer Volnay to Pommard.
More enjoyable the second day with interesting aromas developing. Not much fruit left on this one.
Overall, I wouldn’t turn it down if offered, but I also wouldn’t seek it out.

Ripe red fruits. Delicate tannins. Drinks wonderfully right now.
