With age, this is truly deserving of its high praise. Melted dark cherry licorice and dried herbs. It’s finally all come together. Don’t be fooled by the “cotes” designation - this is interesting

14% alc.(according to label).
Enjoyable but tastes a bit thin, diluted and out of balance.
This was probably more impressive right out the gates and I would recommend to drink up.

What a terrific CDR style wine - great QPR too - this should get better for another 5-7 years
