Rounder, full of clean crisp minerals with a hint of smoothness and not quite as sharp, fruit (think lemon). Tasted earlier this year - no change. Time to drink up.

This wine was drinking spot on. At 7 years young the raw freshness has given way to a subtle roundness and depth with more complexity than I remember earlier bottles possessing. Worth the wait, the bottle didn't last the meal.

This is beautiful and QPR is fabulous. Soft fruit with mild floral aromas and well-balanced acidity. Great weekday wine and rebuy!
