Fabulous juicy lussac. Blackcurrant, raspberry, and black licorice on the nose with a juicy body, but retaining structure. Touch of dirt and must, but mostly pleasurable hedonism. Very nice and drinkable even after only 30 minutes decanting. Great for $20.

Cherry, subtle leather and forrest floor on the nose. Solid mouthfeel weight with flavors of cherry and black current. Nice finish with a good tannins. Definitely better with decanting.

Out of a split: deep dark ruby/garnet & very reticent nose. Had to leave this for several hours, finally revealed lovely elegant nose of black & blue fruit. Fairly one dimensional aromatics, really suave on palate, tannic grip with blackberry compote & stewed plums. Finish was not polished but this is probably due to its youth. Believe this has a lot more time & represents great QPR.
