Excellent QPR Cherry pie vanilla. Totally serviceable Pinot for everyday, a treat for friends who like sweeter wines, and a perfect introduction to those who are ready to get a bit more sophisticated. The first baby step on a staircase to Pinot Heaven. This wine has an invitingly light cigar wrapper-vanilla-nutmeg-spring vineyard nose. The first sip overwhelms with sweet bing cherry but settles mid-palate to avoid becoming cloyingly sweet and finishes with a pretty darn long and satisfying feeling of heat and tart cherry-rhubarb oat crumble. Missing are the layers of flavors at each stage from sniff to sip through swallow and depth of each layer too. Drinks very well now. Likely to remain delicious another couple years. — 6 years ago
Good enough with berry and oat flavor. Very balance. — 7 years ago
Pairs well with white cheddar cheese and oat crackers. Night and light with a tinge of sweetness. — 3 years ago
Med/deep ruby with purple
Nose: candied cherry, stewed raspberry, oat milk/ coconut, dill, star anis.
Palate: redfruit upfront, great mid palate acidity with fine sandpaper like tannin, can taste the dill/pickle juice at the end. Mid/high acid. — 3 years ago

2012, was worried reading online reviews, but this is complex and amazing. Macerated cherries, baked apple crisp, some wood, other herbs and spices I cannot pinpoint. Some chamomile tea notes. All on the nose. Palate is apples initially, buttery bread, more cherries then hits a citrus acidity late that leads to baked apples with spice and vanilla and oat buy it is all balanced by the underlying acidity. There is clearly an oak influence but so well balanced with acidity. Nothing funky on this one despite its color and some online notes. Outstanding and unique. — 6 days ago
