  94+. Pale gold color. Sweet peach, honey, melon, pear, quine, honeysuckle, red apple, tropical exotic enticing delicious bouquet. Dry but with sweet ripe fruits. Delicious. Honey, pear, vanilla, tart apple, tart peach, slate, stone, saltiness, minerals. Long acidic finish. Starting to exit that stage of fresh squeezed airy delicate but strong ripe fruit to a youthful acidic wine. Very long acidic, mineral, slate with some fruit finish (almost crunchy finish). OUTSTANDING. Amazing QPR. Can still sip on it, but also a great food wine. Drinkable now, it may shut down, but should drink well for at least 8-10 years from vintage before it takes on more mature characteristics and it should live long past that

  Very light and Airy but good concentration with lots of fresh primary fruit which will be enjoyable for the next 6 months to a year before it settles down and starts to reveal its true acidic dry nature. I think this will be another great vintage for this wine which has been a knockout year after year. Drink now or hold until it's 20 years old or longer

  Still with a lot of soft pear and Light peach concentrated flavors but now with much more acidity coming in as it leaves its baby fat phase. Still with that just bottled youthful fruitiness but great acidity now to kind of balance it out. This still is evolving just to establish its youthful appearance but should be long-lived. Based on the fruit in the acidity this should be truly outstanding. Another QPR home run

  91++. Too young to give true judgement. Right now in its fresh fruit phase. Not showing the acidity and minerality that it likely will in a short period of time. Explosive bouquet of dry peach liqueur with perfume floral notes. Medium bodied. Viscous and full on the palate. Delicious peach liqueur, dry honey, melon, dry peach flavors with a long finish with acidity. The primary fruit hides the acid. Great structure, concentration, fruit, and acidity. This should be another top notch entry in this 10th year (of every other year) dry version. Great QPR. Great future. Cellar Selection. Drink now to 2042
