Bordeaux blend that is neither overripe or overdone, this is reminiscent of a mid-tier left bank Bordeaux, with a touch of extra acidity. Red and black fruit show a leathery edge, and an hour of air deepens the fruit. It’s a lovely drink, but sadly runs about 2X of equivalent quality Bordeaux.

I agree with your take, David. The ‘09 is drinking similarly at the moment. I’d own more, but the QPR isn’t great.
