Flight 1 (4 Notes)

  • 2023 Lapostolle Sauvignon Blanc Grand Selection

    Chile, Rapel Valley

    Vibrant, extrovert profile, herbal grassy notes but not overly so, nice balance, citrus, quince, nectarine and peach
    Palate shows med body, med to high acidity, 13%, a few bitter notes here, the wine feels lacking freshness, almost clumsy and all over the place, cuts short

  • 2023 Reyneke Sauvignon Blanc Biodynamic

    South Africa, Coastal Region, Stellenbosch

    The wine shows elegance, fine oak frame, walnut next to ripe white stone fruit, welcoming, some toasted notes.
    Palate shows texture, ripe citrus, mineral, high acidity, quince, grapefruit notes, almond, the wine shows length and a rather linear structure.
    Impressive

  • 2020 Otronia Malbec

    Argentina, Patagonia

    Purity with deep blue fruit core, high intensity, extrovert, fine spice and oak aromas, welcoming, a few heavier floral notes too.
    Palate follows the pattern, clear blue fruit notes, 13.50%, elegant tannins but tight, nice vibrant acidity, the wine feels very compact, long finish
    Beautiful

  • 2022 Otronia Merlot RUGIENTES 45

    Argentina, Patagonia

    The wine shows pure clear nose, ripe red and black fruit, some floral notes too, smooth and easy, sweet spices in the back.
    Palate with juicy tannins, ripe fruit, pulp-y textyre, big tannins but not aggressive, a bit warm (14%), very fresh still, full body, a lot of red fruit notes (from cherry to apples and pomegranate), a few butter/cinnamon mix in the back, long finish
