Lovely ripe plum and warm spice. Crisp acidity and a clean mid-palate. Crowd-pleasing and food-friendly.

“Dense purple-black; hints of oak, vanilla and tobacco, dense and structured, built to age.”

Bright garnet with brick edges. Lovely notes of cherry and dried herbs. Crisp acidity and a clean mid-palate. Punches well above its weight.
Lovely ripe plum and warm spice. Crisp acidity and a clean mid-palate. A benchmark for the region.
Lovely hints of oak, vanilla and tobacco. Full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins. Outstanding value for the price.
A pale straw gold. Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Silky texture and great length. It finishes with polished, chalky tannins. Perfect for a festive aperitif. A serious wine that rewards patience.
Lovely aromas of black fruit and cedar. Dense and structured, built to age. Highly recommended.
Amber and luminous. Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Racy, mineral-driven and precise. The aftertaste is bright and mineral. Punches well above its weight.
Lovely hints of oak, vanilla and tobacco. Rounded, generous and supple. A serious wine that rewards patience.
