October 31, 2021 - Purple fading to garnet; very good clarity for a dark wine. Medium legs. First aroma impression: this is a young wine. Aromas are primarily black fruit, then red fruit: blackberry, black currant, hint of blueberry. Then red currant, cranberry. Just a hint of eucalyptus, spearmint. Medium body, medium minus finish, medium minus acidity. Palate intensity much less than that of aroma. Had to work to find spices, definitely no smoke. Overall impression: a young, hard and/or closed wine. At $6 per bottle, however, QPR is above average for a Syrah. Bought a second bottle and will not try that until 2022 or 2023. Screwcap. A Trader Joe's value find.
