Inky violet core. Lovely fresh-cut grass and gooseberry. Rounded, generous and supple. A serious wine that rewards patience.

Emma Tasting 🌱 Novice 2024-11-22

Amber and luminous. Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins. Lingering notes of spice and dark fruit. Perfect for a festive aperitif. Highly recommended.

Grace Grape 🍷 Amateur 2025-11-03

Vivid salmon pink. Lovely a nose of citrus and white flowers. Crisp acidity and a clean mid-palate. Lingering notes of spice and dark fruit. A natural match for seafood and shellfish. A benchmark for the region.

A pale straw gold. Lovely notes of cherry and dried herbs. Silky texture and great length. Highly recommended.

Brilliant pale lemon. Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Rounded, generous and supple. Will happily buy again.

Crystalline pale gold. Lovely notes of cherry and dried herbs. Concentrated fruit balanced by fine tannin. It finishes with polished, chalky tannins. Will happily buy again.

Lovely aromas of black fruit and cedar. Concentrated fruit balanced by fine tannin. Punches well above its weight.
