May 29, 2019 - Rather tart on initial taste, but this mellowed over an hour or so. Not very full bodied.

January 26, 2019 - Rather tart, fruit comes through and good body. A bit beyond its window but still drinking well.

Minutes minimum. -

May 30, 2017 - No formal note, the outstanding memory since I drank this several days ago is that is has a tart bite that makes the cherry/raspberry fruit pop out at you. Decent QPR and worth giving a try if you enjoy this varietal.
