Good solid drink. Maybe a little better day 2.

I have liked this wine over multiple vintages. This is a kitchen sink blend, but mostly tastes like syrah with a pinot noir style, in a good way. Not too heavy, goes well with lots of chicken dishes such as roasted or the like.

had this by the glass at Luna Park (supposedly partly owned by the owner of Olson Ogden) in San Francisco and really liked it. bought 2 bottles for myself, both of which were really nice. has a lighter taste compared to rhone blends, in a good way in this case. pretty good QPR overall.

This is nice, it is rich but lighter, black cherry and anise and herb. Not too heavy.

Very good, particularly on day 2. There is a syrah intensity in this wine, but it is not exactly sure how to reveal itself. The wine toggles between being foursquare and nuanced. I think this needs another 6 months to a year to come together. Excellent QPR.

This is very good, smooth and rich and pure, easy drinkin' for the barbecue.

Still young with firm tannins. Leather, spice and some black fruit. This is a very interesting wine, definitely not a fruit bomb. Very good QPR.
