    This herbal wine is full of crisp green fruit. It has lively grapefruit and lime flavors as well as tangy acidity. Spicy on the finish, it's ready to drink now.

  • 2015

    Although this wine has structure and acidity, it's lean, and the fruit seems to be missing. Spice and a smoky character give some pleasure. Drink from 2020.

  • 2014

    The wine is both dense and fruity. It has fine tannins that are dark and concentrated. The berry flavors are balanced with acidity and touches of wood-aging spice. Give it until 2018 and consider opening for an hour before tasting.
