  • Aged beautifully.

  • Wonderful wine. Soft, smooth, velvet, with leather and tobacco. Drinking well. The years have been kind to it.

  • I think this is a wine that you could line up with some of the classified wine and it would not be inferior!

    Copious aromas of new saddle leather, spice box, lead pencil shavings, black currants, blackberries & a hint of espresso.

    Very balanced taste, good fruit, tannin, acidity - all there at good proportions. And considering its concentration... it has years ahead of it.

  • Opaque almost black color, wine smells blackberries, black currants, earth and tar.
    Ourstanding structure and concentration of flavours, soft sexy style and velvet texture. After first sip you immidiately want to try another. Compelling and classy wine at the level of Grand Cru Classe of St. Emilion for fraction of the price.

  • This is a well made wine crafted for gracious drinking when young. Colour was a dark carmine and the nose showed red rose with a polished patina. Palate was medium bodied and well balanced with good depth of brambly fruit, smooth acidity, a polished and slightly sweet wood patina and enough grip on the finish. Why don't I fell more enthusiasm? In spite of extravagant claims on the back label about "great terroir", I think that the charms of this wine shout "man made" at present and could come from anywhere in the world, but maybe with more time the claims for terroir specificity will become more plausible. Good, though, but not special QPR at €16.

    PS 12/27/2014 - Unsurprisingly the remaining half much diminished but still drinkable with loss of bloom, aroma and fat and more prominent tannins.
