  May 18, 2019 - Greenish gold to straw, below medium legs. Aromas are white fruit dominant: apple, peach, pear, with very slight hints of melon, stoniness (granite? slate?) and straw. On the palate, white fruits remain dominant but there is a hint of stoniness and maybe tea. Light body, rather satin-like texture. Finish is short, medium acidity. Overall impression: this wine is pleasant but hard to read. With exception of white fruits all else is quite subtle. At $14, QPR is average. We might try other varietals from this vintner, which seems to be highly-regarded. But only if priced <$14 and a red. Drink now.

  February 8, 2019 - 2018 Colorado Governor's Cup Wines: Light yellow color. Lots of peach nectar, apricot, candied orange peel, along with honeycomb, lychee and floral perfume. Medium-bodied, moderate acidity, there’s significant sweetness in here, but it’s not too heavy. Pineapple, peach and mango nectar, with sweet floral perfume, orange blossoms, sugar cane and candied ginger. It finishes clean and with notes of minerals and mountain stream, and the sweetness is balanced quite nicely.
