This continues to develop well - it's rich, quite dense, with a certain class, but the fruit is a little unripe, which is a shame as otherwise this would be a great wine. As it is though, it's still a great QPR, as usual - there are innumerable CCs offering less for more.

Plums, cherry and leather on the nose, then a medium bodied mouthful of the same with a touch of cranberry and blackberry, quite tannic still, good finish. Very good QPR as usual, if not hitting the heights this estate can reach.

Dark red with some bricking. Medium to full body but with a slight bitterness on the taste which stops it breaking the 90 mark. A small amount of tannins remain so this should be good for a few more years but I suspect this has peaked.
Fairly good value but when you could compare what other bordeaux you could buy in the 25-35 dollar range from better vintages, it's hard to justify buying more of this.

Very matured and full of flowers nose, taste still powerful.

Like the last one, this ressembles a Margaux CC at a third of the price.
