Translucent garnet colored with a nose of Earth and Pinot funk. Gently sour fruit with flavors of pomegranate, red raspberry and a bit of rhubarb with earth notes. Lithe with high acidity, yet balanced. Finishes medium.
The acidity in the wine proved a great foil for braised short rib.
Punches well above its weight. My last and best of 3. Still I wouldn't hold much longer. Drink through 2023.

Light garnet colored. Red fruited (cherries, pomegranate) and slightly tart, with a subtle sweetness. Silky textured with zippy acidity; showing more finesse than earlier bottles. Well-balanced and easy to drink.
In a very good place now; superb QPR.

Very light color, like a Poulsard. There's a subtle earthiness to the nose, macerated cherry and pommegranite. Elegant on the palate, the mid-palate is well balanced, there's a candied fruit element on the front-end. Overall, a elegant weepll balanced, yet primary and somewhat simple wine.

I really, really enjoyed this. Very clear, delicate in nature it reminded me of a complex beaujolais. Long finish.
