Dark garnet in color. Nose of dark cherry, plum, blueberry, and a bit of oak. Second nose really opens up with raspberry, strawberry, blueberry, cola, and vanilla. Smooth and mellow. Fruit and tannins have mellowed and balance one another.
As the wine gets out of the bottle before hitting the aerator, the fragrant escaped and filled the table. Cherry Cherry Cherry and hint of vanilla. J Davies's red surprised me. I enjoyed the layers of flavors and long finish. 24-months French Oak

A bit young and rough around the edges for me. Tannins and acid add a coarseness to the wine. Dark rich fruit without too much complexity yet. A very big wine

Anther smooth great tasting bottle from Davies. Aging well. Really good QPR. Loses points for lack of complexity.
