Community Tasting Notes (3) Avg Score: 94 points

  • Full-bodied, rich, lush and silky, with layers of ripe, sweet, juicy red and black fruits, this is already a pleasure to taste. The layers of black cherries and plums offer purity, length, freshness and serious persistence in the finish. This is the best wine from the home property of Stephane Derenoncourt yet.

  • Tasted next to the 2011. Exuberant on the nose - generous fruit, not overripe or cooked though, plums, spices, liquorice, hints of chocolate. On the palate a bit of alcohol, oodles of fruit, minerality, polished tannins, good acidity. Spicy finish, impressively long. Lovely. Very good QPR. 93-94+

  • Deep in color, the dark red fruits combine sweetness, freshness and opulent textures. The wine has volume, lift, character and most importantly, a lingering, fruity, plushly textured finish. This is the best wine from the home property of Stephane Derenoncourt yet. 93-95 Pts
