Very pale with a greenish tint. Clear and bright. Lively, fresh, astringent. TOuch of cream, zesty gooseberry. Straight, dry, acidic. Quite long with gooseberry theme. Simple.
Clear and bright, pale lemon yellow. Apples and Apricots on the nose and a touch of diesel. Dry, light, fresh. Medium acid. Quite short with grapefruit and apple.
Clear and bright, golden in colour. Creamy nose, perfumed, white pepper, wet stone and perhaps pineapple. Good acidity. Rich stone fruits. Peachy, long and lush. Warm (14.5%!)
Intense, inky, no colour change. Earthy, medical and alcoholic on the nose. Dusty and brambles and cassis. Black rich fruits on the palate. Cassis, ripe, lush with good acidity and a tannic finish. A little short.
Very intense. No colour change. Savoury crisp bacon. peppers and sweet brambles on the nose. Rich, soft, savoury palate. Ripe sweet black fruits, tannic finish. BIG.
