Powerful nose of honey, flowers, perfume. Very sweet smelling, but it's quite a dry wine, still floral, with a wooded character, more perfume and a bit of cedar box spice. Read More

The very definition of a bouquet on the nose. Let's bust out the aroma chart... Pear, lychee, orange, perfume, and Off! Yes, the bug repellent, but I swear it's pleasant. Soft and delicate in the mouth - not as exciting as the nose. A very interesting wine. Read More

Sweet light melons on the nose. Tart and sweet up front but with a light body that's a bit demure. A light dusting of smarties on the finish. Nice. Read More

Always looking for a drinkable red under $10. We enjoy what I call "Old European style" wines - to find them, we look for old-fashioned labels, with no animals pictured on them. This filled the bill, and I would definitely buy it again. On the lighter side, fruity, not too much tannin. Read More

Een tanninerijke, volle wijn die de 7 euro bij de AH zeker waard is. Read More
