taraine's Review:

Very tobacco-y on the nose. The first sip was a big surprise - huge fruit! Ripe cherries and apples with a hint black berry. The tobacco nose follows through, providing a very nice balance to the giant fruit. Excellent structure and balance. The finish is clean, leaving you wanting more.

taraine's Review:

Sweeter than I expected, but no worse for it. Very Fruit forward without being jammy. Nice smooth finish. Looking forward to the 2nd bottle.

taraine's Review:

Surprisingly good considering the source and price. While it has few standout qualities, there are also few faults. An average Pinot

taraine's Review:

Excellent wine! A deep, opaque purple, it smells of cherries, leather and smoke. This wine has amazing structure and balance - not too tannic, not too acidic. The initial flavours mirror the nose, with the cherries opening up as it breathes.Wonderful.

taraine's Review:

A nice light green colour and a citrus-y nose. Served cool, this wine was light, crisp and altogether pleasant. Tart Granny Smith topnotes with hints of lime, and a dry finish combine to form a decent white wine.

taraine's Review:

Sweet and a bit cloying. If you are going to drink this, drink it COLD - this cuts a bit of the sugar.

taraine's Review:

Weak, watered down flavours. Non offensive. I have had much better $10 wines.
