Community Tasting Notes 10

  January 6, 2012 - Initially it was crisp and minerally. Over time, it went more towards ripe pear and peach with a richer mouthfeel. I liked it both ways but I will not give a score.

  October 8, 2011 - Bright gold. Floral nose of passion fruit, stonefruit, and a whiff of sweetness. Has a pleasant entry and a silky texture that borders on viscous, but the flavors shift to a harsh, bitter cyanic peach pit note that is unappealing.

  October 1, 2011 - Not too peachy or cloying, which is about all you can ask from a domestic white rhone blend at this price point. I'd buy again.

  September 16, 2011 - Great QPR. Nose is very floral and the color and palate are very similar to crisp chard. Recommended for anyone other than my wife who didn't like it that much.

  September 8, 2011 - 3rd bottle, consistent with prior notes. Again, $7.99 at TJ's brings forth a reference California Roussannne that's well-made, versatile, and balanced. What's not to like?
