Absolutely delicious, but a bit past prime, with surprisingly little evolution. Heady candied rose, dried strawberry and raspberry, pure ethereal focused fruit, good texture, but no secondary characteristics. Refreshing medium/medium minus acidity, but otherwise little structure. The wine was slightly opaque and had the look of a wine that was starting t come apart. Lesson learned - not meant for aging. Won’t evolve. Little to gain, probably best within 3-5 years. to me, QPR vs a good very good 1er cry burgundy doesn’t make sense
