  Nice big fruit, definitely opens up and shows more rose petals and cedar spice if you give it some time.

  This is a beautiful little Rasteau. Lighter red color in the glass with Blackberry and Raspberry fruit on the nose and palate. The finish is still in development but coming along nicely. I guess I would call this wine "Rasteau Lite" it's not as heavy footed as some of the big jammy Rasteau's but it still carries a masculine Rasteau character. Great QPR and will pair beautifully with most food. It works quite well with Cashel bleu cheese, very nice.
