Tasted like tobacco and hint of blueberry after a quick pop and poor. Decanted the rest and it really opened up after 45 minutes. Gentle tannins and full of fruit. Good value for price paid.

Not a lot of fruit off the nose. Almost smells of worn leather and dust. Not a lot of fruit on the pallet, medium tannin on the back end. Good enough, but it wasn’t quite what I was expecting (not sure what I was expecting though). I’ll be interested in the next bottle to compare notes in the future.
Update: after some time, this wine really opened up. Producing a lot more fruit on the pallet. Glad I kept at it with this one. I would recommend decanting this one for at least 30-45 minutes, probably an hour.

Deep clear ruby Flashy dark fruit upfront Easy to like, but feels a bit flabby. But then dries out a bit in the finish. Great QPR for a Pom And tastes like a Pom
