- Ruby color with medium forming legs. It's balanced with a light/medium body. Bright texture with a medium finish - Quite pleasant but unremarkable. Bright red fruit on the nose and palate. A hint of oak. Good with food. A solid everyday wine.

Perfectly acceptable italian red, but nothing special. Food friendly.
Rosé - Sparkling

Beautiful color. Well-balanced on the nose; delicate minerality, lightly toasted oak, crisp fruit (apples, pears, a but of citrus), some pleasant yeastiness. After about 10-15 minutes, the minerals become more pronounced. On the palate, the fruit dried out a little, think dried peaches; a backbone of stone throughout. Delicious and an excellent value.
White - Off-dry

Deep gold color, almost like honey. Nose was all mineral with just a hint of citrus or apricots around the edges: strong aromas of slate, asphalt, graphite. Good minerality on the palate as well, but rounded out nicely with some surprisingly ripe fruit. Solid mouth feel. Not over the hill; this bottle probably has at least a few more years left.

Classic gewurztraminer nose: Christmas spices and delicate fruit (possibly melon), continuing on the palate. Good mouth feel with some body but not too heavy. Entirely pleasant to drink.
