Lovely aromas of black fruit and cedar. Silky texture and great length. Punches well above its weight.

Ava Grape 🌱 Novice 2025-02-27

Brilliant pale lemon. Lovely scents of stone fruit and honey. Rounded, generous and supple. Highly recommended.

Lucas Grape ⭐ Ambassador 2025-10-27

Crystalline pale gold. Lovely ripe plum and warm spice. Bright and zesty with a saline edge. A clean, refreshing close. A solid, dependable choice.

Theo B. 🏆 Expert 2023-02-16

Lovely fresh-cut grass and gooseberry. Crisp acidity and a clean mid-palate. A benchmark for the region.

Lucas Tasting 🍷 Amateur 2022-01-13

Dense purple-black. Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Dense and structured, built to age. Lingering notes of spice and dark fruit. Try it with mushroom risotto. Outstanding value for the price.

Vivid salmon pink. Lovely a nose of citrus and white flowers. Bright and zesty with a saline edge. A warm, lasting finale. Will happily buy again.
