Another solid vintage of this Umbrian blend of Trebbiano (locally called Procanico), Grechetto and Canaiolo Bianco. Light white gold color. Aromas of orchard fruit, white flowers and some fresh herbs. Flavors of green apples and pears, white peach and raw almonds. Medium length and brisk acidity with a subtle mineral note. Fruit forward, crisp and refreshing. Just a hint of RS. Thank you for sharing after the baptism, Chris B! — 5 days ago
Medium golden color. Aromas of orchard and tropical fruit, fresh herbs and a bit of vanilla. Flavors of ripe pears and apples, lemon zest, pineapple, peaches and a hint of butterscotch. Light mineral and oaky notes on the long lasting finish. Slightly creamy texture which is nicely balanced by crisp acidity. Clean and lively. Thank you for sharing this one, Ron B! — 6 days ago

Dark ruby/purple color. Aromas of ripe blue and black fruit, forest floor, leather and tobacco. Flavors of cooked black cherry/plum/currant fruit, blueberries, coffee and a bit of milk chocolate. Noticeable vanilla flavor on the slightly oaky finish. Extremely fruit forward and lush. Full bodied with very smooth mouth drying tannins and reasonable acidity levels. Smooth texture, bold and very dense. Appreciate you sharing, James W! — 5 days ago

100% Furmint. Honey gold color. Aromas of tropical and orchard fruit, white flowers and a touch of petrol. Flavors of passion fruit, apricot, tangerine, lemon, baked apple and raw almonds. Slight honey/baking spice note on the long and mouth coating finish. Extremely crisp acidity and creamy/rich texture. Well balanced, viscous and elegant. Outstanding value, especially considering this wine comes in a 750ml bottle. Thank you so much for letting taste this one, Kase! — 6 days ago
Another solid vintage of this guilty pleasure wine. Pronounced aromas of white flowers, ripe orchard and tropical fruit as well as some citrus. Flavors of nectarines, peaches, apricots, pineapple and fresh herbs. Medium finish and crisp acidity. Light bodied, creamy mousse and light frizzante bubbles. A bit more RS in this vintage, which is well balanced by all that acidity. Well crafted and low (6%) ABV. What can I say? My wife will drink this with me. Nice dessert option on a hot Summer Day. Thanks for sharing, Young Chris. — 5 days ago

Medium-plus finish and slightly chewy tannins. No sign of oak aging. Vibrant acidity and nice purity. No over the top fruit bomb here. Clean bright and slightly reductive.

Blend of Touriga National (50%) and Alfrocheiro (50%). Light pink color with some orange highlights. Aromas of red berries, citrus and rose petals. Flavors of strawberry, red cherry, currant and raspberry fruit, lemon/lime, grapefruit and minerals. Medium finish and crisp acidity. Medium bodied and a bit of heft (more than expected). Can stand up to some heartier/intense food. Thanks for the taste, Chris B! — 16 hours ago
