This is fantastic. For 5 days the nose was beautiful with roses, potpourri, bright red fruit, cinnamon stick, clove. Tannins are lush with punchy acidity, not overbearing. The nose transfers through to the palate with dry dirty, tree bark, minerals. There’s a beautiful purity to the fruit. This tastes young and I can’t wait to see how it develops. Now I need to find more.

Nov 15th, 2022A crisp, light wine that reveals white peaches, grilled apricots, and fresh lime with sea salt and a nice long finish. Ideal picnic wine.

Light bodied, but deliciously balanced, gulpable, fragrant red riesling. Lots of red bing cherries, violet, something really leathery, funky and strong tropical fruit aromas in the background like brown sugar. Some spice on the tongue, then bitter almond and black tea on the finish. Mouth coating fine tannins. Really good.
