  9,000 points for QPR...I have allot of the same bottles. Meaning, I have case quantities of all the wines I like and even though I drink them allot, I dont find the stupid need to keep posting about the same thing. I only do this, when I am totally smitten by a wine that is still within reach. Meaning, we can all still buy it as first buyers. This is so damn fantastic and so snobbish for a modest wine. If my life was withered down to having this type of wine to drink everyday, you know...I would be grand. Theres so much restrained elegance in this wine that I am totally in peace. This is French class in a denim printed t-shirt. A diamond in the rough. This will be my last post on this for several years as I drink them until my tooth becomes fully purple. Drink or Hold

  Typical Bordeaux. Young, this one, lots of fruit and flavor. Tremendous quality and full of potential. Absulotely drinkable right now, but also ageable for another decade. Buy!

  Inky dark crimson in colour. Very fresh nose showing plums violets and cassis from the glass. Medium bodied with luxurious velvety tannina. It has a bright purple fruited core with a hint of oak and plenty of fresh acidity and a bit of grip. Showcasing the opulence of 2019 and in a lovely place although clearly a young wine and would be interesting to try in another few years.

  Notes of vanilla, herbs, pencil lead and prunes. Tannin character is medium-plus with a slight astringency. Acidity is sharp, which is not unexpected at this young age. Overall, its a young Bordeaux, I would wait a couple of years before trying another one to allow the acidity and tannins to soften.
