No decant. Tasted good right off the bat, but is fading in the open bottle. Herbs de Provence and blue and blackberry. Medium-full bodied, with slightly grippy tannin and medium-high acidity. Drink now. 89

Dark purple in the glass. Nose of blackberry and garrigue. Opens with blackberries and dark cherries, oak and alcohol are apparent, but not overwhelming. Eventually transitions to garrigue with a slight cola note. Tannins are still apparent during the medium length finish. 15% ABV. At 9 years old, this still seems fruit forward, and the tannins suggest that it might go longer.

Agréable. Ça s'est mieux intégré depuis 2 ans mais ça devrait continuer de s'améliorer sur les prochaines années. C'est très gourmand au nez et en bouche. La texture est soyeuse et c'est bien concentré. La finale est encore sur la chauffe toutefois. Un beau QPR mais qui doit séjourner en cave.

Loved this. Luscious mouthfeel and oodles of dark fruit. There was a hint of sweetness. Reasonable length in the finish. I wish I had more.
