YES ! Finally after some time, a País that is not Brett drenched.

Chilled is best for this wine, cranberry, bacon fat, cherry, a touch of that skin contact tannin.

Smooth and right on time for a warm day working the garden.
This is delicious and worth seeking out.

Probably best drunk young to avoid the Brett potential. Sounds delicious if you get a good one.

This has that creamy fruit nose that I am looking for -

Tart cranberry, pomegranate whole seed, mandarin rind, blackberry bramble, menthol.
Medium weight; and a great example of a field blend.

Cherry scone of a nose -

Needing some time to breathe, this opens up nicely after 2 hours.
Frozen Strawberry (Thawed) cape gooseberry, savory, tart cherry, light in tannic structure, light in gravelly stone.
Finishes with a nice Buddha palm acidity.
Very tasty.

A very floral nose of lilacs and Heather.

Lilacs, violets, gravel, fig, - medium bodied, the wine finishes exceptionally dry, and has a bit of heat.
