Plum, prune and cherry in the nose. Also eucalyptus. Well roundes tannins (mild, but strong for a Beaujolais), enjoyable acidity. Juicy. Very nice, serious Beaujolais .

"Natural" nose with a bit of apple. Then also white peach. Nice acidity. A bit mousy, I believe.

Nice nose of lemon zest and Boskop apple, but fortunately not in an apple juice/natural wine way. Sorrel. Unripe apple. Wet stones. Medium bodied, quite strong acidity, but well integrated. Refreshing, but alcohol noticeable. Somewhat bitter as is typical for Italian whites.

Amarena Cherry and old furniture in the nose.very ripe and warm, even sharp on the palate. Not a big fan of the mouth feel, but not a terrible wine.

Nice Sauvignon Blanc nose with not too much exotic fruit and minerality, gooseberry. Grapefruit. Floral: a rainy spring day in a park. Palate with a little bit of honey and mostly stone. Clearly recognizable as a Sauvignon Blanc, phenolic.

Pleasant nose of bramble and underwood. Slightly sharp tannins, not too heavy, medium body, relatively high acidity for a syrah. Good stuff, maybe too young.

Interesting nose with resin, licorice and even raisin. Very strong tannins for an orange wine. Bitter, rich. Not something for everyday, but very interesting.

Very subtle and seems older than it is. Transparent pinot-like in the glass. Basically no fruit, just some herbs and dust in the nose. Not very complex on the palate. Dry with some mild tannins and little acidity. A hint of salt. Maybe it needs more aging, but I doubt it. Not bad.

Several citrus fruits including yuzu, lemon and mandarin including the peel. A hint of lemon yogurt. It is mostly about citrus, so not super complex, but completely on point. Quite strong and very pleasant acidity.

Yellow, ripe fruit and wax, minerals, a bit of cyellow curry, maybe even a bit of petrol. Not a lot of acidity for a Riesling. Good wine.

Not a lot of fruit in the nose. Some lemon including the zest. Essential oil, camphor, and gum. Nice. Also some almond and riper fruit with air. Somewhat creamy smell. Nose could be mistaken for a Chardonnay. On the palate it is even more subtle and mostly about structure. Slightly bitter.

Light color. Nose of blood orange, maybe a hint of raspberry. Quite full bodied (13.5 percent alcohol, which is a bit noticable), little fruit. Nice wine, should go very well with food deep fried mushrooms.

Reductive nose, a bit of plastic, but goes away with air to some degree. Somewhat green, green tobacco and apple. Acidity is not that strong, but pleasant. Nicely creamy, great texture. A bit salty.

Nice nose of wax and honey. Candied citrus. A lot going on. Even some salt. Quite sweet on the palate, almost off-dry, just a bit of acidity. 14 percent alcohol, a bit fat. Still a good wine.

Nose of several citrus fruits, including yuzu, and some peach. A hint of honey and floral notes. Body is relatively light, but orange peel remians in the mouth for quite a while. Very nice.

Orange. Smells a bit like glue, also baked apple. Slightly smokey. Not that great unfortunately. The winemaker has some good wines, but I am not a fan of his unfiltered whites.

This is a full-bodied, warm Interpretation of Pinot noir. The color is quite dark. Nice nose: smoke. Red ripe fruit including dried fruits, some cinnamon and spices. Some shoyu. Also a hint of black currant twig. Nonetheless has freshness, perfectly rounded tannins. Not a fashionable style, but great fun. Hedonistic.
