Saturday, February 1, 2020 - Splash decanted and tasted over 2 hours. Dark crimson with rose-colored meniscus. Blue-purple fruits (Prune, blueberry), creosote, lead pencil on the nose; disappointingly sour on the palate - black cherry, brett. Surprisingly short, dry finish.
Day 2: This really needed a longer decant! Full and flavorful on the nose and palate. Sour flavors resolved and dryness has disappeared. More like a Pessac-Leognan in its current state, with rich black fruits and a round and flinty finish. Great QPR!
