This wine is in a wonderful place right now. I am not sophisticated enough to provide all the notes here but I cannot imagine this improving over this showing.

5 hr decant. High expectations were never realized. Perfectly fine but i wad underwhelmed.

Interesting and enjoyable out of magnum but not showing the acid or minerality of a true Rhone. Obviously consumed too young but certainly a crowd pleaser for all but my most discerning guests.

Delicious, great acid and minerality; not sure its a good QPR since the "regular" chard is so good too.

Shocking how big this wine still is after 10 years. Probably should have decanted as the last glass was really delicious; big fruit and and still strong tannin backbone. Give it air.

Killer. Beginning to 'settle in" and improving balance between primary fruit (great) and softer tannin and secondary flavors. Marvelous.

I was underwhelmed (or overhyped) by this wine. Nothing "wrong" but just not as "tasty" as I was expecting. At these prices - no more.
