Purple red colour. Lots of spice, leather, tabacco and red fruit. The first sip reveals young tones of perfumed wood, sweet blackberry, cherry and an interesting touch of huzelnuts. The finish is long and quite spiced. Not complicated, but has good body, it's high on acid and smooth tannins. The surprinzing fact is how well the high level of alcohol is hidden. Thus, a friendly, well made wine.Ready to drink. Aging potential- 5-7 years. Find more on wineonbrief.blogspot.com

Intense ruby-red with purple hue. The aromatics tend torward flowers and underlined herbal notes. The fruit is expressed on the nose by plums, cherries, and woody hints of capuccino and cocoa powder. The taste delivers good acidity, balanced tannins, with impressions of red currants, cherries, plums and coffee. Finish: slightly bitter, mainly vegetal with clues of sage and olive oil. Rounded, friendly, balanced.

Straw yellow. Great aromatics. Floral nose (rose petals) with clues of exotic fruits and peach, apricot, apple, grapefruit and honey. Smooth, elegant acidity, with notes of grapefruit juice, apple, ripe apricot with a unctuous chardonnay barrique touch. The finish is long with a persistent taste of tropical fruit compote and lime. Both elegant and fresh. One of the best romanian whites, for sure. Best dry white at 2011 Vinalies Internationales. Find more on wineonbrief.blogspot.com
