You can tell (hope?) there is much brooding below the waterline here, but right now it’s very muted. Will try again in a year or so.

Rounded, red berry, savoury spice, cocoa, carob, and earthy mineral nose. Medium-bodied palate with good grip and focus; long, solid finish. 4/5

A very nice young wine that is open for business but better on day two. Very good concentration and balance with a very cab franc nose (40% of the assemblage) full of rhubarb, strawberry, and raspberry and a very lush mouth. At full retail price ($29.99 USD) the QPR is questionable, and I’d feel much better buying this at about $24.99 USD. That would be solid. 14% ABV (very good/***/16/90)

Blending 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc, the combination of underbrush and ripe, smoky plums hits the spot. The wine has lushly textured, ripe fruit and ample sweetness in the mouth, giving it more weight and depth than usual. This is quite nice to drink today, and it can age for a few years as well.

Licorice, black raspberry and fresh, red and white cherries pop with no effort. Juicy, fresh and lively, the wine is medium bodied with loads of fruit and freshness in a bright finish. Made from a blend of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc, the wine is aging in 20% new French oak barrels.
