From .375. Definitely better than my last couple of bottles, this is now pretty nice, with a lot of dark cherry. A bit simple, but it’s a 13 village. Good QPR.

Still pretty tight, though there's some pretty strong cranberry flavors. I'd hold these - 2013 isn't a terribly giving vintage at the moment imo. Shows promise.

Eye: Medium Red ruby Nose: There is a bit of so2 that blew off after about 30mins of air. Then some deep pitched red fruits and gevrey funk. Palate: Fresh cranberry fruit, some animal funk with medium acidity and medium plus finish.
Over all this definitely needed some air. I would suggest decanting if tasting in the next year. After it had some time it was quite nice and reflective of the vintage. Enjoy!
