Ruby with mid-life viscosity in the glass. Cherry skin, shoe store and pepper on the nose. Med-lite body with round cherry, cola and spice on the palate. Red fruit weakens mid-palate while gaining citrus notes. Decent structure. Medium finish. Comparable with the 09 Sea Smoke Southing I had a couple months ago. Good value.

Ruby with medium viscosity in the glass. Cherry skin and astringent on the nose. Med-lite body with young cherry, bitter citrus, oak and pepper on the palate. Super grippy…needs time to integrate. Medium finish. Excellent QPR.

Old world style pinot. Light body, subtle red cherry on the nose. Body of cherry, some barnyard and earth nose to palate, little sage. Finish was short, light, red cherry and rhubarb, light earthen tannins.

Nice clear clarity with dark Ruby red color. Medium intensity of stewed cherry, jam, white pepper, spice, and musk. Medium acidity, smooth tannins, and glycerin mouth feel. Medium finish. Another outstanding qpr and this will probably score higher with time. I'm not sure why I'm not scoring higher now...

Attractive black fruit on the nose. Well structured with a good depth of flavour This is drinking well and should keep for another couple of years
