Community Tasting Note

• ISOPinot Likes this wine: 86 points

  August 7, 2021 - Lovely deep ruby with very good clarity; a few bubbles on days 1 &2. Medium legs. Selectively red and black fruit forward: red currant, cranberry, raspberry, black and sour cherry. Minor hint of eucalyptus and black pepper just discernable. Medium body, bright and juicy texture. Medium + finish and just below high acidity. The acidity really amps up the finish. Impression: very pleasant interesting wine. Vaguely reminiscent of Sangiovese and Grenache, but fuller in body and greater acid. Complexity; keeps drawing you back as wine temperature changes. I stored in the refrigerator because, at the tasting room, the wine was noted to be a "chillable red". But I'd pour a glass 15-30 minutes before drinking rather than right out of the frig. Better taste, better finish. At $20, QPR just above average. Drink now.
