P&P. Good showing with the plummy fruit taking a back seat to a more earthy presentation with almost crisp acidity. Very floral. I do think this is in a great spot and I would optimize by drinking sooner rather than later

Mostly herbal and cedar notes on the nose. Still very dark in the glass. Herb, cedar, anise, tannins, and saline notes in the mouth. Overall impression is of a wine that has reached its peak.

One hour decant. Deep dark purple color. Interesting nose of dark berries with a savory herbal and peppery character and subtle minerals. Wonderful full bodied palate of stone fruit and dark berries with spice and dusty graphite mineral notes. Fully resolved tannins and a smooth long finish. Drinking incredibly well.

One hour decant. Deep garnet color. Aromas of red and dark berries, cocoa and earthy spice notes. The palate has ripe black cherries and stone fruits, blackberries, mocha, minerals and oaky spice. Tannins are bold and velvety. This is delicious.

Marionberries in the nose. Still quite dark. Medium+ body. Tannic structure is evident and needed about 45 minutes to release some of the fruit which has begun to transition. Although this is a big wine, the blend - 50% Cab Sauv, 25% each of Merlot and Cab Franc - are well integrated and show a rich nicely nuanced note of dark berry fruit with some earthy/gravelly note. Perhaps this is still 5 years from its potential but excellent right now.

Splash double decant. Deep dark purplish magenta color. Raspberry, underripe blackberry, and vanilla flan. Dry, nearly full bodied palate, with nice, fine acidity. Full tannins on the medium long+ finish. 75% CF and 25% Merlot

I was pleasantly surprised by this and my aeration didn’t do it justice. It’s likely much better with a traditional two hour decant. Great texture and integration.

One hour decant. Deep rich ruby red color. Bright aromas of red and black berries, stone fruit and purple flowers. Silky palate is full of dark berries and cherries, dried herbs with floral and mineral notes. Tannins are polished and well integrated acid makes for a nice long finish.

Great bottle drinking really well right now. Well integrated tannins and beautiful rich chocolate flavors. It has a long complex finish. Could hold up longer but I wouldn’t risk it.

Not going to rate this because it just can’t be a wine that any serious person would try to sell for $60+. It’s a muddled, acidic, over-oaked, alcoholic, befuddling mess. Been open a couple hours and it’s been bad the whole time - so not sure what to make of it. I always discount Eric Guido’s descriptions and scores but he really outdid himself with this one. The only explanation is that this is a bad bottle but it’s not bad in any way that makes it seem like it’s flawed. I hope the next one is drinkable.
As an addendum, I tried this each day for four straight. Only on the fourth day did it approach drinkability. I have no idea what the deal is with this wine. If this is what they intended to make, I cannot imagine why.

More old world style with mostly dark blue fruit, grippy tannins, some nice herbal notes and a fairly long finish. Definitely not a CA fruit bomb, more on the rustic and dry side.

Consistently one of the best QPR WA wines on the market. Red fruits, floral nose. Bright and juicy with red and dark fruits, soft tannins, medium body and medium acid.

Double Decant. Sweetish, ripe red and black fruits. Nicely textured. Easy drinking and crowd pleasing style for this winery. This is a cellar worthy, high quality $25 bottle of wine! I would love to see what its like in 5 or even 10 years. Ill probably just mix it in with my daily drinkers and complain when its all gone. :)

Wine of the year thus far. Decanted and started drinking. Suculent fruit, a bit of tannin, and a long, long finish. Wonderful!

PNP in a hotel room, but we brought good glasses! More red then black fruit, with dark cherry, raspberry, red currant, plum, and a smidge of cranberry, all supported by hints of earth, mocha, and violets. The structure is showing up big time! Good QPR! 2024-2029.

In view of some of previous reports, I decanted for 4 hours at which time it was delicious. Ready to go. Mild tannins, dark fruit. Not acidic, but well balanced.
