Unpretentious, easy-drinking blend of Sangiovese and Ciliegiolo by Paolo Bea - benchmark producer of natural wines - and the nuns at the Cistercian monastery in Vitorchiano in Lazio (coenobium is the Latin for monastery). Fermented with wild yeasts. Pale, slightly cloudy cherry color. Red fruit (cherry, strawberry jam) aromas and flavors. Earthy and floral notes and a hint of tobacco and herbs. Fruit-forward, medium bodied, great acidity. Nice rusticity. Very pleasant — 4 years ago

Insanely weird and wonderful. Almost white port like notes. Sweet fruit and heavy viscous mouth feel . — 5 years ago
Honey! Acid! Give it a small taste right when you open it then let it open for 30 min before really digging in. — 6 years ago
Fruity but not too sweet — 6 years ago

Fun Georgian foraged wine. Surprisingly smooth for a foraged grape, taste like a great French natural wine. Ate with grilled chicken with asparagus and ramps. — 4 years ago

First Georgian wine, first orange wine, I'm in uncharted territories here 😊. Spoiler alert : I like it very much.
I have issues describing the nose as it's completely new to me : there is a bit of honey, a bit of menthol or petrol, some white flower notes too and a tiny touch of apricot. Wow
Here comes a palate with tannins 😮 a strong acid drive, a good width with matter and a nice thickness, honey and apricot and then that huge spherical mid palate where tannins kick in with a drying thing which creates some asperity and triggers a never-ending finish with that dry mouthfeel and the same honey, apricot touches.
I usually associate honey and apricot touches to sweet wines or some chenin crus. This is very dry, but with a weight and a nice presence. I'm a bit late on the trend but I'll look into orange wines some more (and Georgian wines too) — 6 years ago
