Notes of green apple, stone-peach and white floral. Crisp acid on the palate with white pepper and stone fruit. Nice depth and balance. Medium finish.
Notes of vanilla, black cherry and earth. The palate shows cassis, mineral and coffee notes with rustic feel and earthy tannin. Full finish.
Savory umami and cassis notes with black pepper, currant, dried fruit and earth on the palate. Full round tannin and a long finish. Very nice.
Notes of anise, baked black fruit & raisins, and mineral. Rich and opulent on the palate with juicy berry flavors and nice balance. Full firm tannin and a long finish.

Earthy honey floral aromas with vibrant lime zest. Silky crisp citrus, rocky mineral, and earthy floral flavors throughout. Crisp and richly elegant with deep finish. Excellent.
Lanolin, fusel and lime aromas. Ripe crisp orange zest and racy mineral. Full and polished on the palate with a lingering finish.
