Highly aromatic. Sweet straw, white flowers, white stone fruit. Marzipan finish. Present but not astringent acidity. Great QPR.

Maybe a tired vintage? Varietal aromas exist but are completely overwhelmed by heavy-handed oak. Bitter on the finish. Unhappy face!

Deep oak flavor with a peppery finish. Bold, but also sugary. Despite this, a fairly dry finish.
