Well structured and smashable, much like my ex girlfriend. — 11 years ago
Fantastic! This Nebbiolo-based red from the Boca commune is tightly coiled at the moment, needs decanting. Nose of black cherries and cloves. Beautifully defined on the palate, moderately high acidity makes this both a wonderful food wine and a long ager. Tannins are fine, with the quality of Italian plum skins and black tea. Medium bodied, with a moderately lengthy finish. — 11 years ago
2012 vintage - we had this Swiss wine from the Lavaux last night with grilled sausages. The spicy gaminess of the Gamaret - Diolinoir blend went nicely with the meal. — 10 years ago
New producer for me. Really pretty and sappy. Not as serious as most offerings from the commune. The '10 lust continues. For now or later. — 11 years ago
Sainsburys half price - £5. Nice. — 12 years ago
Absolutely divine little blend of Gewurztraminer, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris sourced from the ever so promising Basket Range. One of the more smashable drops you will have for the year. Cloudy and Juicy in appearance. Prominent Gewurz making itself apparent early with a touch of the sweetest of spices and a big hit of Rosewater and juicy plum flesh. Crisp acidity and a slightly zippy mouth feel. The palate delivers with delicate violets, rosewater, white plums and pink lemonade, never would've picked any Gris until a tiny finish of pear. Can not go wrong in the slightest for the price if you’re lucky enough to get your hands on one. Enjoyed with some spinach gnocci — 10 years ago
Delicious sparkling Malvasia made at a commune/rehab commune in Emilia-Romagna. Those folks made a fun and way too easy to drink bubbly. Way to go hippies in recovery! — 11 years ago

If you want to take a "trip" back and chill with some great friends who live a long distance away, then crack this Gewurtztraminer. The nose is inviting with peach & lavender. The mouth continues to explore the ripe peach fruit forward wine. Just enjoy...peace out! — 10 years ago
