This was a pleasant suprise from previous 4 bottles consumed in 2012/13. Should not have drinked so early. This vintage clearly really benefited from the extra aging. Fantastic QPR

Rather typical Bordeaux nose with blackcurrants, some dark plums and a bit of dried herbs. Medium bodied, again with blackcurrants and some dark plums, fine acidity, some spice, and just a bit of tannic bite. Quite fine for a "plain" Bx Sup, the ripe vintage has probably given this a bit more fruit and roundness, and more rather than less balance. Drinks well now, but no rush to finish, could possibly develop a bit. 85 p.

A bit undetermined nose. Medium bodied, acidic, showing some dark fruit with salt licorice. A bit tight but nicely structured.

Black fruits, vanilla, herbs, green pepper, licorice. Alcoholic with a lack of freshness. Still drinkable but very little excitement.
