This wine is medium dark garnet in color. The nose is full of brambly cherry and raspberry aromas laced with spice and oak. The palate is fruity and spicy with a generous supply of tannic grip. A long finish carries a bit of sweetness along after the sip. Great with a meat sauce pasta or with sweet Italian sausages. — 4 months ago
A fun New Years competition between Riva and Sizerrane. Both are winners. Though I’d say Riva had it by a nose. It was dense and deep. I loved the burnt caramel meat after two days in a decanter. The Siz was more elegant upfront and had a very long enjoyable finish that was haunting. Good stuff for 2023! — a year ago

This wine is very lightly tinted, a mellow yellow-green hue. The nose shows plenty of minerals, housed in beautiful citrus notes - lime and tangerine, mainly. The plate is just as laden with minerals. There is a strong streak of salinity which runs through the sip and a very fresh acidity. The finish lingers with those lime notes hanging in there the longest. — 4 months ago

Notes of pear and apple. It is light and refreshing. Slightly oaky. Has a bit of a sour after taste, while still being refreshing. — 3 months ago
