Like velvet. Full bodied and meaty but smooth. Notes of pine and forest floor, some black olive and fruit on the nose. Dark red color lovely overall

Smells like red wine due to the oak but tastes like white, light and refreshing. Nice acid. Buy again.

Plums and violet sweetness layered over leather. Lovely. Wish I had more.

Great body and all raspberry. Very pretty.

The highlight of the month in this time of corona. Drink now. Fantastic nose—I could just crawl into the glass—violets and cherries.

Nothing earth shattering but smooth and easy to drink. Velvety.

Still quite fruit forward and jammy. Not extremely complex but delicious and well-integrated. Good nose. Ruby red color still there.

Great QPR. Very fruit forward and pleasant to drink.

Rich, fruity, almost chocolate-y

Fascinating rosé. Lean and racy and delicious. Will buy again.

great nose, long finish
really lovely and still awesomely powerful and fruity.

Rich, but with a good mineral streak to keep it from being overindulgent. Peach and white flowers, round, great nose, very yellow in the glass. Went well with apple cider pork chops. Would buy again.

Meh. This was very deep red for a rosé and looked very pretty in the glass, but nose was not much and was aggressively non-complex. Fine for a Fourth of July picnic but there are better values. Really wanted to like this, but just didn't play out. Would not buy again.

Better than most $11 wines. Decent house wine.

Excellent christmas wine, with cherries and spice. My last bottle of this excellent vintage...

Cherries and spice. Soft now but still fruity. Drink now.

11/14/2015 - oolah wrote:

Surprisingly fruity for such a mature wine. Red fruits, plum and raisins. Tobacco. Tannins very soft, color a deep rose.

Let this breathe a little and you'll be rewarded with a lovely Morgon, all red fruit and bright. Recommended.

This is restrained compared to last year's beast, and really lovely. Plenty of cherry and some pepper. Rich without being overpowering.

Grapey and cherry cola.

I love this fizzy pink stuff. Very good juice this year. Hope I can find another bottle.

Too rough around the edges. Decent for the price but not really enjoyable.

Plush and juicy red fruit with great bones. Would buy again.

Tart and light. Good rooftop drinking.

Wasn't paying that much attention TBH, but this didn't make me sit up and take notice. Good effort, but not remarkable.

lemony and delicious, surprisingly full

6/28/2015 - oolah wrote:

Slightly oxidized, but seemed to mellow a bit after being open for an hour. Still great acidity and minerality. Lemons, flowers and apricots and wet stone.

This is drinking quite well now, especially after being open for a couple hours. Big cherry flavors with a ton of spice and some hints of tobacco. Very rich, enjoyable.

Lovely wine, drinking well now. Violets, red fruits, spice and a little bit of barnyard.

This is not my favorite vintage. Even now, this wine seems too big, too unbalanced. Prefer the 2012 and the 2010

4/25/2015 - oolah wrote:

Amazing QPR. Tons of wet stone and minerality, very grassy. Love this producer.

Still delicious, but not as lively. Drink up!

Always a party. Great QPR.

4/12/2015 - oolah wrote:

Still lively, but if you have one of these, bottoms up. Not quite as fruity as it was last fall, though still enjoyable and a good way to celebrate spring.

Like drinking cherry silk.

Nothing special. It was fine, drinkable, not too anything. Can't expect much more for $13 these days, sadly.

This was delicious and while I enjoyed it, I was sad to see it go. Wish it wasn't my last 09.

This was delicious and made me long for summer. Would be a perfect picnic or grilled food wine on a hot day on the deck. Light and vivacious but very full-fruited. Cranberry, raspberry, strawberry, even a hint of jolly rancher watermelon. Recommended. Will buy more for summer.

Good QPR, very reliable and always crisp.

Our New Year's Eve champagne was interesting in a good way. Good minerality. Apples and nutmeg and ginger with a hint of yeasty brioche. A good way to ring in the year.

12/24/2014 - oolah wrote:

Really lovely once it opened up. Initially very quiet with some fruit and almost a slight fizz. After about 5 hours turned to leather and tobacco and cherries and violets. Good length. Wish I had another — would save it another 5 years.

Still crazy after all these years.

Mellowed and still excellent. Developed some leather but cherry is still strong. Good structure. Glad I still have one left.

Seriously, have the Bretons ever made a bad bottle of wine. Outstanding, as always.

OK wine. Full fruit, easy to drink, but not so interesting.

Good, tasty, but not terribly exciting Fleurie.

This was really lovely without the sharp edges I usually associate with Sancerre. Lots of pear and wet stone.

Still kicking. Not as insanely fruity and more reserved, but the structure holds up and some leather has appeared. Still plenty of cherry spicebox. Good, but drink soon.
