Bright red cherries, baking spices, plum, black pepper, and hints of vanilla cola. This vintage drinks brighter and more effervescent than others. Some blackberry and earthy notes provide depth. — 4 days ago

Plenty of red berry notes, eg tart cranberry and cherry. There’s an underlying minerality, plus some herbal and almost smokey notes. A unique approach for the region. — 17 days ago
