Flavors of German chocolate cake is dressed in an explosion of dark, ripe cherries in a creamy base. White pepper plays into its elegant profile, unveiling notes of cinnamon toast and roasted coffee

Classic styling here. Red and black cherried fruit flavour but with a dark, woodsy edge. Fragrant herb and wood spice top notes. Good fruit and fragrance but taut, finessed, almost filigreed. Balanced on a pinhead stuff. The aromatics here in particular feel incredibly pure and yet, at the same time, the nose is not simple and nor is it suggestive of sweetness. The control is high and yet the wine feels real. Quality wine. Beautifully turned out.

Intense blackberry and mulberry aromas, dried herbs but not much of the greener crushed-leafy aspects of this variety. Very appealing flavour with intensity and drive, the tannins firm and dry and giving a decent backbone to what is a more serious style of cabernet franc. Juicy sweet fruit, freshening acidity and lovely drive.

There's a curious magic that goes on in some of Greg Brewer's Chardonnays, which can be an acquired taste because they are unlike other Chards but always deliver intriguing sensations. This bottling smells of dairy, damp earth and minty verbena on the nose. The palate combines sage-y herbs with wet rocks as flashes of yuzu peel add vibrancy.
