May 30, 2023 - Great juice. Never expected to finish the bottle in one sitting, but here we are. Excellent depth and persistence.

November 14, 2022 - Off dry to medium, this was nutty rich and spicy with bitter lime marmalade flavours seasoned with pepper. Super bitter sweet character which eliminates any chance of cloying. I loved the balance and complexity. All in all very satisfying. 91pts

February 20, 2021 - Seattle Chaine Port and Madeira Tasting. Dried orange marmalade quality. Tasted next to a Leacock's Rainwater Madeira, this is darker, richer, and more acidic with a longer finish. This is more of a food wine for sure but the Leacock is more enjoyable on its own. This paired wonderfully with a mushroom tart.
