Popped and poured; consumed over two days. Consistent throughout. The wine pours a purple color with a translucent core. The viscosity is medium+ with moderate staining the tears. No signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is redolent of black and blue fruits: plums, blueberries, and brambles. The fruits are also accompanied by some purple flowers, sweet pipe tobacco, milk chocolate, vanilla and baking spice. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin with medium acid. Confirming the notes on the nose. The finish is medium. This is really easy to like. Drink now and over the next 5-7 years easy.

P&P; amazing QPR on this one! Flavors of raspberry and plum fruit, herbs, tobacco, and vanilla. Medium bodied with ample tannic structure. Drink now - 2034+.

Maybe the best of these Rasa projects. Absolutely fabulous QPR, with strawberry and blackberries to open, some spice on the mid and a medium-long, dry finish. Has room (and the structure) to improve and a just beyond amazing value, which I admit probably bumps up my score a point a two. These have become our "house wine" ... Great weeknight go to.

Fruit forward. chocolatey. Leather. For such a young wine this is drinking very well right now. Syrah Grenache merlot cab. My favorite founders reserve yet. Really liking this blend.

Incredible QPR. Bright red berries, herbs, tobacco, plum. Medium+ tannins. Good body. Easy to drink. Bought three cases and should have bought more.
