Apple candy, grape, lots of fruit esthers. Not tremendously complex but has acidity and would probably work with spicy food. Sweet apple esthers and lack of bitterness/minerality makes this a bit cloying.

Unfiltered, unfined, natural fermentation and lovely. A beautifully cloudy bottle of natural joy. Gamay-ish with bright cherry, soft earth and subtle mineral and spice. A delightful beverage.

Interesting wine. Apple and cut grass. There is a slight oxidised note on the palate. Quite mealy and a bit of a yeast note on the end. Great food wine.
