Excellent, tannins wonderfully subdued but have done their job. Fruit remains in all the best ways. Gave it 2 hours of air, no decant, and that seemed perfect.

Red and blue fruit combine up with wild herbs, tobacco and light spice. This is a light weight Bordeaux blend. I don’t think this wine will get any better than it is now. Respectfully, this certainly doesn’t line up from a QPR perspective.

Dark fruit, garrigue and terpenes release with every swirl of the glass. On the palate, the wine teases you with only a touch of complexity. The wine never really met our expectations. Good but not great. I don’t think this wine will get any better. Drink up.

Drinking quite maturely here. With big blackberry fruit akin to cab franc and an almost sweet cedar cooperage with vanilla char, I like the tannins but Acidity seems muted and I don’t see how this develops better from here.

Decanted 2 hours. Rich, nice long finish. Could go a few more years but drinking well now.
