Community Tasting Note

ChristP Likes this wine:

Tuesday, December 25, 2018 - This wine has morphed since I last rated it into a beautiful swan. The inkiness seems to have toned down into what is still a deep red. We opened and poured from the bottle, and the wine was open for drinking immediately. There are still plenty of dark fruits, but the tannins have mellowed nicely to create what is a very well rounded wine with everything in perfect balance. The finish is deliciously sweet (but not in a sugary sense). Previously, I was all for drinking this wine in its youth, but I can see that waiting a year or so has brought forth an excellent wine. There are three bottles remaining from the case, and I'm tempted to wait another year to see if there is another phase or whether this is the peak. Either way, excellent wine and fantastic QPR.
