Showing more development this time since I last tasted more than 2 years ago. Aromas of blackcurrant, green bell pepper, olive, cedar oak, earth, forest floor and hints of eucalyptus. Supple and smooth on entry, displaying subtle ripe blackcurrant along with olive, earth and meat. Long finish with some minty aftertaste, soft velvety tannins. Still drinking well although the fruits gradually faded.

Incredible QPR at $28 from auction. Throwing lots of sediment. Still needs a long decant to soften prominent tannins. Rich, dark fruit that is tiring just a bit. Drink now.

Wasn't sure it would still hold up but it does! Love the interesting combination of distinctive dark fruit and earth. 2 hours of decanting helped!
