Drinking well although there is still some lovely fine tannin and the fruit and structure are still strong so suspect it will improve. Didn’t love it but enjoyable.3.5+

Decanted for a couple of hours. Awkward and almost musty for an hour, then started singing! Beautiful nose: spice, roses. Prunes, caramel, tar. Mellow and long for its level. No rush even at 18 years old: 2-3 years or more. Fantastic QPR.

Enjoyed this . Teetering on the edge of being on the downhill run and at its plateau. Would be drinking up if I had more. 4-
