Second of two bought at retail. Better than the first bottle. I’m seeing more in this wine now—not a lot more but more. It’s not my style and I won’t buy it again (bad QPR), but it has definite qualities. This is most definitely a now wine. Red over black fruits, talcum powder tannins, a little sweetness, and bright acidity. Jeff Leve called out the notes of thyme in his note. I wouldn’t have been able to put a name to this without his help. Another critic gave this very commonplace wine 94/100 points and called it one of the wines of the vintage. This is utterly beyond me. To each his own, I guess… 13.5% ABV (good/15/**/87)

Black cherry, thyme and smoke on the nose, moving quickly to a puppy-soft, finesse driven palate. Confrontational, curvaceous and medium-bodied, this wine is already easy to drink and will be very nice on release.
