Yellow. Herbaceous first, chalk. Rich taste. Pear. Nuts. Sweet nuance but good acidity.

After a slew of ho-hum wines, this is very refreshing! A bit light bodied, so I didn't think i was getting much on the first sip, but it really has a nice depth of flavor and nuance. Would definitely try again with various food pairings.

Vanilla and blueberries on the nose. Bright, cherries and plums. Baking spices on the finish with a little bit of cedar. — 5 months ago
Aged underwater. Possibly a gimmick, but a dry, balanced, and very interesting Basque wine. — a year ago

Dark ruby with the rim starting to lighten the nose is very black cherry. The alcohol is still present, but it’s gotten better during dinner showing smooth tannins and good fruit. — 8 months ago

Definitely improved with age! More approachable, less tannic. Went well with mutton chops. — 4 days ago
