Clean. Linear. Mineral driven. Light body. Bright red fruit, cranberry and pomegranate. Some baking spices developed on the nose over time. Quite lovely.

For this price, hard to beat this. Like a really well-made Cru Beaujolais; lifted, fresh, strawberries, dried cranberries, violets, crushed chalk. Electric on the tongue, so much minerality and acidity and balance. Killer wine for the price. Drink it!

Just lovely, so incredibly bright and effusive, with delicate pink/red fruit leaping from the glass alongside touches of earthy, herbal complexity. Wild raspberry, cherry candy (not like a Beaujolais, but similar), sappy pine and a minerally finish. There's a touch of effervescence on the palate, a bit of secondary fermentation I guess, but it's very subtle and goes away quickly.
Their "Liaison" Pinot is more complete and attention-grabbing for only ~$10 more and represents better QPR for me, but still, this was a gorgeous, guzzle-worthy wine, that isn't without depth.

Sightly hazy light garnet. Cherry twizzler nose, outlined by light smoke and wet soil, perhaps a bit of heat. Very high acidity and light mouth feel reflecting the lean vintage. Palate true to the nose, bright red fruit kept interesting by subtly funky accompaniment. Very good, like Burgundy and Santa Barbara had a baby.

Open three hours.
Light bodied (11.5% abv), nose all barnyard. On palate, fresh acidity, light tannins, good length
