  Very nice wine, but not great. Dry with muted fruit but still very drinkable.

  Half bottle! Light orange in colour! Sweet nose of dried herbs an dried flowers! Charming mineral nose! Lacking fruit on the palate! Lacking sweetness but very mineral, it is quite unique! Soft! Should pair it with food!

  Took a bottle to a wine lunch group that I had Coravined off several ounces about 100 days ago. No change since then, but the bottle is probably a couple of years past prime. Nice texture and earthiness, thin on fruit. I actually ended up blending it to good effect with an older Calera SVD to the benefit of both.

  Last one. Rather shy and not as flattering. Still making for a pleasant and balanced village wine considering the 13 years of age.

  Different from the ones before. Maybe a wine fault - more acidic.
