Bright aromas of fresh berries, rose petals and minerals. Nicely layered pallet features black/blue berry fruit, black licorice, cocoa, orange zest and freshly tilled soil. Hint of smoke on the long finish. Bright acidity is balanced with silky tannins. Pleasant richness. Beautiful balance. Great QPR! Revisited in March 2023. Outstanding!! Taking rating up to 9.2.

Loved this wine. Not sure if it’s intentional but it has some perfectly balanced off flavors like diactyl and acetic acid. It makes it super complex with lots of dark fruit, a slight buttery taste and an acidic bite. One of the best wines I’ve had in a long time.
