Ruby color. Surprising initial nose of fresh strawberry pie (when drinking Teutonic, one should always be prepared for surprises), but completely attractive. Complexity increased with air time, and dramatically so with food. Should buy more.

Fairly light ruby, nose of violets and roses. Dry with some spritz, lightly tart red berry, sour cherry, restrained fruit with cane tannins on night one. Fleshed out on night two, but in a restrained way, nothing flashy, just smooth and subtle, gracefully balanced. The fruit is akin to a raspberry/cherry frozen treat with a dash of lemon zest. Lovely, both with food and solo. Finishing off a couple night later and it continues to improve, picking up a little nuttiness in the background along with some blood orange. My last bottle, but this will only get better, better buy some more.

light ruby, light on the nose of strawberry and brambles. Lightly tart fruit, well balanced with smooth well integrated tannins having a light bitter skin note. Very restrained fruit and light on the tongue, the bitter note recedes quickly, also getting some savory umami herbal notes. Improves greatly with a little air time in the glass. These Chehalem Mtn wines are fast becoming some of my favorites. As an aside my wife tasted and liked it, she usually drinks white and said the Crow Valley Rosé from Teutonic was the best she has had. I also need to buy more of their wines. A visit to their winery may be the best way to pick up some.

Nice and light, well balanced. Great QPR, why am I not buying more from Teutonic?
