A superb confection of plums, damsons and spiced Christmas cake, laced with vanilla. Underpinned with some super tannins which melt away to deliver a shot of black chocolate on the finish. There’s great concentration, of flavour, freshness and vibrancy with a terrific finish. A lovely glass or three to finish the year. Happy New Year to one and all! CHP 92 pts

Fresh & fruity with the classic familiar flavours of plums, leather and fine tannins. Delivered a strong finish, and altogether elegant and classy. CHP 91

Still going strong. I have a few more and there’s no rush. It’s a perfectly decent wine and appears to have mellowed somewhat based on notes below ... QPR is ok but there is better out there. My experience with this wine hasn’t disappointed but not has it made me want to be regular buyer.

Blind tasting of 2011 and 2012 red Bordeaux. A bit vegetal, showing not much fruit, very firm. On the palate a bit unbalanced, thin, grippy, rough. 85-87
