  June 17, 2012 - No notes taken, had over a couple of nights. Drank well both nights, shows varietal character, medium bodied, restrained with purity of fruit shining through, quite nice. Solid QPR.

  July 15, 2011 - Popped and poured. Bright garnet-red color. Up-front, ostentatious nose of strawberries, some tar, and a int of wood. Lively and fruity on the palate with excellent acidity and fruit. A lovely quaffing wine. Paired nicely wth roast chicken breasts and pasta with chard and colatura.

  January 5, 2011 - gorgeous, feminine, aromatic, grenache.
  Brick red, (but translucent) color is slightly darker than aroma/flavor profile belies.
  Aromatic nose of spice, cranberry, black cherry, hint of hard candy.
  Sensual, lush in the mouth; red fruit, spice, raspberry, hint of cranberry. Solid in front, mid palate, lingering finish.
  Paired with roasted chicken; versatile with food and highly quaffable solo.
