Very drinkable and under-rated pinot. I like this 2004 much better than the simpler 2005. Hints of earth and mustard on the otherwise cherry/berry nose. Taste is strawberry red licorice with cinnamon stick with an lengthy and interesting ginger ale-like finish. A new world burgundy, a bit thin, but not as one-dimensional as others suggest.

Nice red fruit with some floral scents, light fennel and a hint of vanilla on the nose. A little hot on the palate but showed nice red fruit and a bacony finish. Would benefit from another year or so as tannins are not quite integrated.

Nice fruity aroma with floral notes. Blackberry & raspberry with smooth tannins. Good QPR and my new favorite!
