Great QPR - earthy black fruit - nice flavor in the mouth but the finish was a little rough at times - not sure if it's an acid balance issue - it was inconsistent - but overall still a very good wine.

A well-made, easy drinker very much in the cote du rhone style. Nose of strawberry and cherry. Medium-weight across the palate with lots of brambly black fruit. Soft, chewy tannins on the finish. Good structure for a wine of this price point. A little more acidity would have been good, but no complaints. I enjoyed this wine and it paired very well with a pork and veal ragu.

Popped and poured. Color on the lighter side of garnet. Nose full of cherries. Palate light to medium-bodied, soft like a Pinot. Smooth easy drinking wine. Great with some smoked Gouda cheese. 5+12+15+6=88

Soft fruit. Strawberry, cranberry, cherry. Nothing that exciting

Good fruit, medium body, and a smooth and easy finish. Nothing particularly great but very good overall.
