Getting to the end of its life. Slightly stewed strawberry and red cherry but still pleasant and nice spice. Would drink up now and not wait.

Mid garnet. Fine nose, lots of red berries, herbs and flowers. Tart red fruits, redcurrant, cherry, maybe cranberry. Lively acidity. Touch of the natural about it. Very enjoyable. Modest alcohol but plenty fruit and drive.

Lovely and exciting wine. The nose is difficult to pinpoint. Initially makes you think of a new world pinot noir. However, the cherry is tart, and there are some hints of black olive. Furthermore, the nose is equally floral as it is fruity. On the palate, this is a very juicy wine, easy to drink given its light-bodied nature, low acidity and tannins and modest alcohol. The finish is modest, which prevents higher scores. Overall, interesting, juicy, delicious, well made …

Delicious. Light Pinot style Witt very perfumed nose. More savoury herb mid and finish rather than fruit which is unusual but very enticing and great with food. Slightly racy and good value .
