A gentle wine with purity and elegance, red fruits, sweet tobacco, fresh cut wild flowers, fantastic acidity with a nicely polished finish.

A lovely medium bodied red. Some darker herbs like thyme and rosemary in the nose with light cherry and smoke. The cherry reappears on the palate along with racy acidity and mild tannins. Drink now and enjoy with a fatty lamb...I did...

Couldn't place prominent taste on palette, was interesting. 2days open smoothed out the prominent flavor, but was slightly too acidic.

Robust but still well balanced. A little spice and earthiness.
