Old Italian queen. Hazelnut, dried red fruit, layered. Tannins fully resolved and minimal intensity. Acid high. Great aged food wine. Not for everyone but I quite enjoyed. High ABV, was masked though. — 10 days ago

Happy Valentine’s Day! This is a copper beauty - need to open and warm up but then revealed brightness - citrus more than red fruit, slight brioche then limestone - the nose is big and round. The palette is expansive - just so full, some cherry and malo, then grapefruit, red fruit, with some flowers in the background, I can’t believe how balanced this is. Can almost smell the oak. The finish is long, starts with an acidic bite and mellows with the fruit slowly fading away. Wow. — a month ago

Precise dry chenin, not much apple but a stone fruit, high acid stunner. Great bottle — a month ago

This was... not very good. Closed and one dimensional. Lime water with some honey squeezed in. — 14 days ago

Excellent pure juice here - amber hue with an aromatic nose, bright green apple, limestone. Palette well structured and light, good acid, medium short finish. A nice aperitif champagne! — a month ago

Moderately expressive nose - orchard fruit and slate. The acid was big and laser focused. Finish of medium length. Not super complex, but still enjoyable. — a month ago

This is some wonderful stuff. Aeromatic and breezy, with herbal notes abound. Dry palette with cherries and mint, and these hard to describe tannins, they were present but barely noticeable. The acidity was excellent and the medium long finish provided an all encompassing close to the wine. Excellent. — 14 days ago

9.1

This was nice and round, a good food wine. It has an almost nutty, toasty character, not quite oxidative but complex. Enjoyable but definitely a style. — a month ago

Bright and aeromatic, crushed cranberries, brown sugar, herbaceousness. A balanced body with good vigor. Though, too sweet. Tannins aren’t yet fully integrated, but they’re still quite fine right now. — 2 months ago
