This finished in Cognac barrels. It offers a much drier expression focused on wood characteristics. Savory and firm this would be good with some pate or foie. — 3 years ago

I can't understand why southern French whites are not more popular. This beautiful white with mango, melon, hints of ginger and white pepper is a charming, food friendly, easy to drink wine — 8 years ago

Like a deep, spicy apple cider, full of punchy acidity and fragrant, fresh fruit notes that make this a truly distinctive experience. — 5 years ago

Near perfection....smooth butterscotch, carmel, cream with just enough complex apple and cinnamon spice on the nose. Medium body with a finish that lasts for minutes. My wife’s birth year and it’s nearly as impressive as she is. Worth every single penny!!! — 7 years ago

Zero dosage Calvados cider. On the nose, Brett, horse barn and crushed apples. In the mouth, high acidity and zero sweetness. Pretty pure apple flavor. Old school and good. — 9 years ago

Not so clear in terms of composition, blind tasting says it is not typical Sangiovese.
Example of organic wine before it became a mainstream. Very good balance of berries and seems like it was aging in oak 3 years. “I make Sangiovese, the rest are making coke” popular saying of the wine maker 😊 — 7 years ago

Insane Calvados from the best in Normandy coming from a blend of 25-30 year old brandy. Toffee, baked apple, almond, citrus fruit, tropical fruit that has you wanting more. Such a complex spirit. — 9 years ago
