Old vine d’aunis, long maceration, on leis 11 months... such an interesting bottle! Nutmeg, pepper, watermelon jolly rancher, sage, clove, vanilla, cherry. There’s so much going on. We stopped drinking the bottle to see how his opens up.

Tart and very lovely. I'm sure that's a quality described for some people, but Pineau d'Aunis feels like a part of the family. A slight acidic good friend who's visiting from out of town and you can only put up with for a few days. It's not a daily sipper but it's great when you wanna reminisce.

Delicious natural red. Very light, dangerously drinkable.

Perhaps my favorite wine of the year thus far. The grape has a royal history and the flavor is the perfect balance of funk, nut, and berry-the great trifecta.
