Classic Northern Rhone style. Bright black fruit, violet, a hint of smoked meat and black pepper/olive. Mid weight, fresh acidity and well structured. Definitely a cut above standard Cali Syrah. Classic wine from a classic producer — 9 years ago

While visiting the Qupé tasting room in Los Olivos, they poured the medium-ruby '11 Sawyer Lindquist Vineyard Pinot Noir. A funky earthy nose intermixed with floral and savory herb notes. Subtle and elegant palate of cranberry and cherry flavors. Hints of neutral oak on the aftertaste. — 10 years ago

there's a wild and wooly oaken monster trying to emerge but the lacy and flowery viognier coaxes it back in the bottle — 10 years ago

Another tasting room favorite was the purple/garnet '12 Qupé Syrah 'Ibarra-Young Vineyard'. Scents of brambly blackberry, anise and violets. Palate shows rich flavors of dark fruit compote with some notes of mocha. Ripe tannins with balancing acidity on the spicy finish.
