  This has fresh cherry/raspberry fruit, medium weight and some length. An attractive village wine, which is good now but which should develop nicely over the next 2 to 3 years.

  Perhaps a little bit more to offer on the nose since the bottle 16 months ago and some more earthy notes/spices added to mix, but still clearly room for further development.

  Not a particularly deep colour; strawberry and raspberry fruit on the nose and palate; initially rather lean and austere, but opening up a bit after some time in the glass. Good length. Probably needs 2 to 3 years. For now, it is rather restrained.

  A fantastic match to grilled chicken marinated in youghurt, ginger, garlic & indian spices and a potatoe potatoe salad. I had hoped for a nice match but really could not believe how extremely well they fitted. With only a quick decant (and bit on the cold side), the wine was somewhat muted on the nose but in the mouth the firmness, structure and fresh/flourishing fruits hit even the highest notes for me. So delicious. It is still a 90-91p for me although this particular combo was not short of a 100.

  This time tasted at pop and then picked up again at 1,5 hours decant and rest taken from 2,5+ hours of decant onwards. once popped, thought the wine was really compact and gave away a great feel both on nose and in the mouth. At 1,5h it was a bit more mute and rougher on the edges, with some funk, while the latter had gone away after 2,5h. A bit more complex/layered at this time, but I could not help feeling that I thought it was more gorgeus and focussed (although less dimentional) at pop. Anyways, this is rather good QPR IMO.
