Fantastic showing. Tree bark, earthy cassis fruit, a high-pitched note that was part eucalyptus part iodine part ink. Mouthfilling rich dark fruit and a very long finish filled with soft tannins. A wow wine.

Needed a touch of air, but now drinking extremely well - dark fruit, earth, leather, and dried herbs. Perfect for @Scott Domer made beef daube provencale!

Rustic as hell. Massive tannin, dark fruit, pine sap, ferrous, earth tones, undergrowth, satisfying bitter finish. Good for the long haul but drinking well now with a decant. Fantastic QPR.
