In the bouquet grasses, apples, lime and a bit of smoke. On the palate green apples, grapefruit, lime, fresh acidity, grasses again and a touch of minerals. Ok, basic wine.

Apples and some minerals in the bouquet. Same on the palate. Firm acidity. Also firm bitterness. Overall a proper, basic wine.

Expressive bouquet with minerals, smoke, something pleasantly stinky and some honey. On the palate a concentrated wine with green apples, grapefruit, gooseberry and some orange peel. Medium acidity and length and overall certainly an ok wine.

The bouquet shows some white fruits, creaminess, grasses and a touch of honey. On the palate green apples, firm lime acidity, some minerals and bitterness. Ok, just above basic wine.

Interesting and not unpleasant bouquet with licorice and candy impressions. On the palate quite tight with grapefruit, lime and green apples. Some of the group thought it had some oxidized impressions, but I did not really noticed that.

The bouquet showed some smoke and fennel. On the palate a concentrated and dry wine. Some oaky impressions, minerals and a good balance between sweetness and acidity. Some noted some oxidized impressions. Good wine. Early maturity now.

In the bouquet some cherries and raspberries. On the palate juicy and also dry. Red fruits. A bit herbaceous. Some bell peppers and strawberry. There is some tannin. Ok, basic wine.

Bouquet with cherries, raspberries and some sweetness. On the palate a lot of spiciness e.g. clove, cherries, some strawberries and some smoke of the well integrated oak. The acidity is ok and the tannin a bit drying. Some bitterness in the finish. A well balanced and tasty wine. For a Dutch wine a really nice surprise.

Beautiful and fairly complex bouquet with oak, red fruits and herbs and spices. On the palate red fruits, bell peppers, white pepper, ok acidity and medium, a bit sticky tannin. Still a bit reticent. Wait until 2016+.

A really beautiful bouquet with some pleasant barnyard, cedar, vanilla and licorice. Same on the palate. Cherries, herbs and spices and lavender as well. Good acidity and tannin with a pleasant bite. Really good now and over the next 3+ years.

The bouquet is pleasantly stinky. On the palate a juicy wine with herbs and spices, some bell pepper, smoky oak. licorice and a good balance between sweetness and acidity. The tannin still has a firm bite. Really nice now, but around 2018 this will still be perfectly ok.

In the bouquet red fruits and a lot of candy impressions. On the palate the same. A lot of sweetness and also a good dose of acidity. There is some tannin. Overall; this is supposed to be an exclusive wine, but with all the candy impressions, for me it comes closer to a Gamay than a Cabernet Franc. Maybe the fruits were overripe?
