100% old vine Tinto Fino (aka tempranillo) from, a tiny village in Ribero del Douro. Only 100 or so people live in the village and 85% of them work at the winery. Limestone soil and high desert climate makes for outstanding wine.
Red berries and minerality, slightly spicy notes. Medium body and I feel drinks way better than most Riojas — a year ago
Charlotte Dalton - Shiraz - grapes from vineyard in Balhannah and the Downer vineyard in Oakbank - Adelaide Hills. 30% whole bunch in the ferment, pressed to oak - 30% new. The wine is plush, bright and delicious. Raspberry, blueberry, iodine. Soft and juicy on the palate but finishes with tannin and structure
Playful labels on all her wines, but serious juice in the bottle! — a year ago
Vietri - Fiano - organic wines from the world famous Amalfi coast. Sorrentine peninsula, in the Campania region. (think of small coastal pastel colored fishing villages near Salerno)
A crisp fresh alternative white from Pinot Grigio. Try it, you'll like it. Bene! — a year ago
Red blend - 25% Touriga National, 25% Alfrocheiro, 25% Jaen (aka Mencia), 25% Tinta Pinheira.
From. Dao region whics perfect micro climate of high desert heat and Atlantic cool breezes. Dao is not the Decentralized automomous organization for you crypto fans out there... But a favorite for blockchain advocates.
Granite soil and clay sand makes for the grapes to display rich cherry notes, rose petal and a long finish — a year ago

Nordes gin - Galicia Spain. Think about Rias Baixas (green and rainy, much like Ireland) and San Sebastian coastal village, famous for one of the world's most elegant white wines, Albarino.
Then make a base spirit from Albarino grapes, add 11 botanicals and you get a super cool gin. Flavors of fruit, white flowers, (you can almost taste the Mediterranean salty sea air) If your looking for traditional Juniper berry gin..move on. #NordesGin — a year ago

Folium - Sauvignon Blanc - Brancott Valley - south island has clay rich soil which leads to a stoney mineral driven wine. Acid levels are medium and grass is understated. Drinks like a bone dry WA style wine. Which is a taste profile compliment.
Amazing wine for those who want an upscale SB, distinctively different from the sea of average Sauv blancs out there. — a year ago
