Tuesday, August 26, 2014 - The wine starts as an inky purple pool of blackness with very long legs.
The nose is a fruit forward, blueberry tinged waftiness with a hint of cranberry that subsides into a loamy, peat edge of earth and sky.
Drinking is where this wine comes into its own. The flavor profile is a very pleasant mix of sweet berries, rose petals and vanilla with a long, pleasing finish.
We paired with a zesty barbecue meat medley and it held up extremely well. This has an excellent QPR and we are actively looking to buy some more.
