This is the 2013 drinking a little young but very pleasant. Liquorice and ripe cherries on the palate. A little dusty on the nose. — 12 years ago
Nose has freshly mowed field, spring rain, light salinity, grapefruit peel and white florals.
Palate has refreshing tart (medium) lemon/grapefruit blend, wet grassy notes and great Kimmeridgian core.
Great QPR, Quincy is a wonderful alternative to Sancerre, and well worth a market search. A lightly imported AOC, but also be on the lookout for Menetou-Salon and Reuilly, which neighbor Quincy to the East and West, respectively. — 7 years ago
Vintage 2015 / No sulphites. No filtering. 3 months on amphora, 4 months on barrique. Mix of authentic grapes #nielluciu #sciaccarello #minustello #carcaghjolu #morescone that makes this #corsicanwine very enjoyable. Rich and refined. Pretty round. Some roses. Frivolous. I like it very much. — 8 years ago

I don't know about the "drinking pink clouds" marketing hoo-haa, but it's a damn fine and singular Rosé. Sweet but not cloying, tart but not biting. Just right tonight. — 9 years ago
A nose full of volatiles that dissipates after a few minutes in the glass. Tart, sour fruits - cherry, citrus - and a burst of pleasant acidity. — 9 years ago
