  May 11, 2008 - This is the 20th bottle of this wine that my wife and I have had but the first of a new non-vintage bottling. All of the rest were purchased in a case order at the same time and it took quite a while to work through them all and they were also all very similar, as one would expect them to be. I would even expect subsequent new non-vintages releases of the same wine to be quite similar but in this particular case, that's not entirely true. The biggest, and most obvious difference between this bottle and all of the others is the color. The others were very much what one would expect as a "proper" rosé color with a slight pinkish hue. However, this time the color was quite a bit different, leaning towards more of a golden, salmon tinted color. Scents and flavors remained pretty much the same, with lots of creamy strawberries and bright fruits. At around $18, this is still one of the absolute best QPR sparking wines you can get and is easily our favorite.
